Everyone, it seems, has the iPhone 3G on the brain today, but what are people really thinking, deep within the oblongata?
We wanted to find out so we decided to use the power of the Internet to create some interesting Word Tag Clouds using Jonathan Feinberg’s Wordle program, one of the best and most colorful tag apps out there.
Worldle is a program that automatically generates “word clouds” from any text that you provide. The 'clouds' that are reproduced give prominence to single words that are repeated more often in the text. The program is especially interesting because you can change it with different colors and orientations, depending on your aesthetic preference.
We added text from all the over the net and the airwaves, and for one group of people in particular (the Executives), we placed the most likely words expected to pop out of their collective head, if they were really honest. We even put the Lab to the test in another one -- it turns out we were more single-minded than we thought.
Let's take a look at the power of the community brain, shall we?
