| “What do you do?” is becoming an obsolete question and soon it’ll be completely removed from the day-to-day use. The reason is that everyone has online presence - either minimal membership on a social web site like Facebook or a full blown web blog. |  by http://www.wordle.net |
I like this transparency (despite my software security background). I actually massively use it when I research others. I also use it when doing research on myself.
Recently I discovered www.wordle.net that helps analyzing words on the web sites. It creates word clouds. A word cloud is a great way to visually demonstrate the focus of the web site, it also helps demonstrating the lack of focus…
PracticeThis.com
I have ran it on this blog - www.PracticeThis.com. It’s clear I have been focused on Consulting recently:
I thought this is a good time to step back and reflect on what I publish here. It’s time to reflect on my main categories which are:
- Blogging
- Career
- Consulting
- Entrepreneurship
- Influence Without Authority
- Leadership
- Motivation
- Parenting
- Physical
- Time Management
I’ve tried this technique on blogs I like reading with the following results:
SourcesOfInsight.com
JD at www.SourcesOfInsight.com is focused on Problems solving. He seem to be in the Know about getting Results, and that is by asking the right Questions:
JD, was I right? 
Jimmy, Editor In Chief
My good friend, Jimmy (Aspiring Geek), who’s also contributing his effort as an editor for www.PracticeThis.com is crazy about Performance for SQL Server. he is a fan of Incremental Results and he preaches Improvement Engineering Practices over mere Perception.
WritingForward.com
Melissa at www.WritingForwaard.com does lots of Exercises in Fiction Writing focusing on Character.
Melissa, what do you say?
DreamBuilders.com.au
Liara at blog.dreambuilders.com.au is here for Spiritual Presence, her Experiences open the Door to People Awareness and Beyond.
Liara, was I right?
ImperfectAction.com
Giovanna at www.imperfectaction.com seems to be a huge fan of Warren Buffet. Giovanna likes taking Action, sometimes Imperfect, to make Better Connections with People.
Giovanna, how’s the analysis?
MarkSalinas.com
Mark at blog.marksalinas.com likes Juice and he does Exercises like Jumping for Strengthening his Back and his Knees.
Enduringwanderlust.com
Gennaro at http://www.enduringwanderlust.com/ is in love with Paris, he is about Travel, and he relates to Buddhist[sm]
Gennaro, I usually refrain from discussing politics and religion ;).
Summary
I guess you got the idea.
I apologize if I have not included your blog - nothing personal, I love reading your blog.
I am curious about your techniques for online research?

Anyway, what I found interesting was the emphasis on characters because I actually don’t have that many posts on character writing, and I would have expected to see some other words with greater emphasis.
What I’m thinking is that wordle looks specifically at the most recent posts (since I focused on characters last month). I’ll have to go play with it a bit. Very interesting and I love the images it creates.
If I were to mash up ideas on my blog, I wonder what I might end up with manually.
What’s interesting in looking at the auto-mash up is it sort of seems like the fortune cookie effect.
I like it too, i like visualizing stuff.
Christine,
I am happy to hear it is of help.
Melissa,
I love the images it creates too. I also think it is biased toward the latest posts, anyway it is fun and i like it
JD,
HA, liked how you put it - “fortune cookie”. Nevertheless it shows blog’s recent focus - you results, gennaro - paris, melissa - writing, giovanna - action, liara - spiritual, and jimmy - performance. I think it is pretty correct
“The time is now!”
That is so cool, I love it
It is like a like art work, I feel like I should hang it on my wall. Thanks for doing that for me 
I am going to play with this some more.

Imperfect Action is better than No Action
Happy to hear you liked it
I am happy to be of help. Wordle helped me to make sure I am no track too.
Happy to hear you like it. I think it is cool too
