Subject: Word Cloud for KDnuggets News - your comments/suggestions?

The last several issues of KDnuggets News (07:n12, 07:n11, 07:n10) had a new "word cloud" feature, which summarized frequent words/terms that appear in each issue. Words were cleaned by removing the plural endings, etc.

The "weight" of each word/term is based on its frequency, with words that appear in the title given double weight.

I am experimenting with different ways of doing the word cloud, so your suggestions, especially for software that can be used, and comments are welcome.
