Twitter Wordle

February 8th, 2009

twitter-wordle-080208@millarca pointed me to TweetStats, a site that can crunch your total Twitter history for statistical information. It can do bar graphs of when you post to Twitter (here’s mine) and a word cloud (here’s mine), but the cloud isn’t very pretty. Fortunately, they provide a link to transmits the raw text to Wordle, which made the picture you see above.

Seeing “New Blog Post” in such big letters there has encouraged me to decouple my blog and Twitter. Since I’ve started enjoying Twitter more for it’s own sake, I don’t want those notifications cluttering up my Twitter stream (which is already full enough of the crap I write), when they can be just as easily delivered to people who want to track my blog over RSS. Removing those words from the Wordle diagram gives (I claim) a more interesting picture:
