Sorry I will have to leave at morning tea time to get to Auckland more an early afternoon appointment. So this is what I would have shared had I been staying - Nigel

Have been playing with Wordle recently and think it is well worth sharing ... http://wordle.net This is their explanation; Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

I made this example by copying the text from our meeting page.

See more examples on the Wordle site below. I would be really interested to here about your ideas for classroom uses.
