Financial Word Clouds

Posted by Tamela Rich on Sunday, August 16, 2009 · 1 Comment

Catching up on reading this weekend and came across two great word clouds in Pat Allen’s Rock The Boat Marketing blog.

For those new to my blog, I post word clouds because they’re valuable whole-brain communications tools; a brief glance tells you what’s important to the author. Use them in presentations, websites and white papers.

Tell me, please, where you’ve employed a word cloud.

Tamela, thanks for the mention. We think using word and tag clouds helps give writers’ work relevance–it’s not always about the numbers!
Just this morning I spotted one on The Market Oracle, a UK site. See http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=12786 In a sea of data-intensive charts, graphs and tables, the writer provides a tag cloud and comments on the predominance of the word “recovery.”
Best,
Pat
