The Joys of Word Clouds

[Starflower]

I decided as a follow up to this I would make a word cloud showing the frequency of Doctors. Yes, McGann is on there but ebcause I was doing screentime he's barely visable. He's the line above the 'a' in Patrick Troughton. www.wordle.net/gallery/wrdl/555202/Frequency_of_Doctors

And then as a follow up to that I did a Frequency of Companions one. The little line above the 'y' in Nyssa is Katrina. www.wordle.net/gallery/wrdl/556248/Frequency_of_Doctor_Who_Companions

That's pretty neat. How exactly does it work, though? I was under the impression that Wordles only measured the frequency that certain words appeared, so how does it measure the screentime of Doctors/companions?

I asked her that this morning and she said she checked the number of episodes each one had appeared in and then pasted them in that number of times.

This is cool.... now I want to do one, but I'm not sure of what.

I saw that on livejournal and wanted to one for my wallpaper. I do not know what though. Maybe I will do companions and how man episodes they have done.

That's what she already did ^ up there, by number of episodes they were in.

I wonder what other trivial listings we could do - maybe all the villains and how many they were in?

I made a mistake of doing the first and last name. So I am going to re do it by useing only the first name. They took a lot of time and I am sort of angry now.

The other Wordles under my name aren't me, by the way. Erm.
