It generates “Word Clouds” based on text you paste in or from a RSS feed link. It’s quite interesting and you can clearly see the direction of someone’s ideas.

First up is Bill Gates, the figure head at Microsoft. I used his keynote transcript taken from this year’s CES 2009 conference in Las Vegas. Incidentially, this is most likely his last keynote speech as he steps down from the lime light at Microsoft.

Next, we have Steve Jobs the deity at Apple. He definitely has a huge following and was credited for bringing Apple back on track, when he made a comeback to the company in 1996. This was generated using his keynote at Macworld 2008, again this could be his last due to health concerns.
