Word Clouds are a form of data visualization or infographics, which are actually interchangeable,  which mean various innovative ways of presenting data.

In this case, more than just a “presentations” of Words,  word clouds are actually inter-active tags because each word is connected to a link, or hypertext link, which connects the word to a location or website in somewhere in the Cloud, or the internet.

As part of the requirement for our Information Management class, INFOMAN-KGA, our professor Benedict Avila, asked us to prepare a Word Cloud for showing keywords we recall learning in class, and to post the same in our blogsite (which we also set up in his class, earlier in the term, by the way). So here it is, just click this link Infoman Word Cloud. If you cannot access it directly, please cut and past the following link:

https://uncommonsense101.wordpress.com/2010/12/16/my-word-cloud-for-dlsu-prof-avila%E2%80%99s-infoman-class/

but which I simply assigned to the phrase “Infoman Word Cloud” above.

One way to construct these cool word clouds is to type several words or phrases on whatever subject you choose, say in MS Word or better yet Powerpoint or Keynote. To make it interesting, use different fonts, colors and positions. You may also post a background. Then, you right click each word or phrase, and assign the appropriate hypertext link, as I did above.

The faster, more pragmatic way, is to Google “Word Cloud apps” or “Tag Cloud generators”, and download these – and there are so many of these downloadable for free – from the internet.

Thanks a lot!
