Ray and Will Poynter have created Word Cloud Plus, a web app for producing word clouds.
The key benefit of Word Cloud Plus is that it leverages the human brain to find and display better word clouds. Using Word Cloud Plus allows you to choose the right algorithm, choose the appropriate parameters, and configure the output.
Check out these three examples below – or try it yourself by visiting the Word Cloud Plus website: www.wordcloudplus.com
