Geek Fun: DNC + RNC + Wordle = Fabulous Political Word Clouds

Simply awesome.

If you don't know Wordle, do take a look. It's a great way to play with words. Basically, you feed it some text, and in that given text, the more often a word occurs, the bigger it appears in the resulting word cloud.

(Interestingly enough, the biggest words in the Obama word cloud actually aren't "hope" and "change.")

UPDATE: Wordcloudmania! Belmont Club has his own analysis.
