I saw this over the weekend and tried it out myself. It’s called Wordle and is a pretty neat way to get a stylish snapshot tag cloud of your own site. You get to control the fonts used and colors and have a little control over the layout. Who knew that I talked about banned books so much?

I’ve tried dozens of notebooks. All shapes, sizes and prices… but I always come back to my simple pocket sized no-ruled Moleskines. I just haven’t found a better notebook that fits my needs. Which is why I entered this year’s 2008 Moleskinerie Fall Giveaway as fast as I could. It seems pretty painless, just send in a snail mail addy and if you’re not selected they automatically enter you in the next drawing. It started today and names are drawn three times a week for five weeks.
Check it out for yourself and good luck (though deep down I really hope I win)!
