On Sunday night, I went through this exact exercise to help refocus and reassess my blog at gaffney3.com. Wordle.net was invaluable in my refining its overall message by its visual representation of the topics and keywords I was choosing.

Anyway, here’s my post:

And my Wordles:

Jonathan Feinberg qualifies Wordle as a toy, but I would suggest to anyone writing a blog that it be looked at as a powerful tool.

I too am deeply sympathetic from the get-go that wordle could be a valuable tool for navigating the news: another path couldn’t hurt, right? But as soon as my enthusiasm starts, my hand-wringing follows. I worry that wordle’s more lava lamp than tool, prettier than useful.

How will we know when we meet a visualization of the news that’s actually really useful? Can some visualization of the news lay not just another path to the “hot topic” but a better one? Or will headlines make a successful transition from the analog past of news to its digital future as the standard way we find what we want to read?

(Full disclosure: of course, my answer’s no, and that’s part of the basis for my under-wraps startup.)

we had fun creating a few Wordle’s using a large number of tweets – we’ll do more once Wordle is trends higher. If you’d like, we can do one for you. A win/win someday would be if we and the creator of Wordle could make money on our services – maybe through Etsy lol
