Wordle
Straight from the website: "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."
Wordsift
Pretty much the same as Wordle, except, in my opinion, not as colorful!
Tagxedo
Quite a step up from those above! You simply just have to check this site out and play around with it...there is even a shop! You can have your word clouds printed onto t-shirts, mugs, etc. It really is a fascinating site!
