In 2010, Google Labs introduced a web tool called Wordle, created by Jonathan Feinberg. It generates word clouds from any text by displaying the most frequently used words in a visually appealing way. While primarily used for fun, some people have found practical uses for it, such as news organizations creating word clouds of their articles for readers to quickly understand the main topics covered. The Nyt Wordle tool works by analyzing the frequency of each word in the text and generating a cloud with the words, with the size of the word indicating how often it appears in the text.
