Everyone:

This is a world cloud. I created it on Wordle.net. It's a pretty sweet site and it's fairly easy to use. You simply type in a url, or essay, or any random list of words, and it organizes them in a cloud. The size of the word indicates the frequency in which it is used. The larger the word, the more often it is used. So, I use the word "Identify" a lot on my blog, as well as the words "World" and "time." Just one way you can spice up your life, blog, or Facebook page... yeah, try that, type in your Facebook wall url and see what the vocabulary is like on there... on second thought, maybe you shouldn't do that.
