WORD CLOUD


This is the Governors State of the state speech visualized through a word cloud. This word cloud is interactive. For example you can change the color, font and arrangement. Another feature is the display of words, the entire speech was about 3700 words, but you can choose the number of words displayed. The most interesting aspect of this interactive program is that it puts in bold the the words which are most frequently mentioned. So this can bring about another point of view, for instance the largest word is NOW because it was the word most said in his speech. I think that the word "NOW' implies a state of urgency.
