Fun With Wordle

This past weekend I attended a teacher conference in Nagoya (JALT Conference 2010). One of the presentations I attended mentioned the online program Wordle. I had learned about this site before, but hadn't used it. Hearing about it again gave me the idea to try and use it in my Essay Writing class.

The idea behind Wordle is that you can take any text and turn it into art. For this exercise, I took the blog comments my Essay Writing students wrote about restaurants and restaurant reviews and created little artistic masterpieces out of each one.

Here are 6 images. Which image represents your blog comment? Match each image to the blog author. The blog comments are on the Restaurant Review Blogging page. (Hint: click on the image to see a larger version.)
