Well the wordles of popular songs thing went so well that Ally over at The Road To Copacetic and Mackalicious at Blogging Pantsless got into the act. (Thanks for the h/t, Ally!)
In honor of these two fine and distinguished Dawgs, I present Munson. Wordled. I think I’m going to frame these. Seriously.
There’s just something so visually cool about these… I think because they remind me of all the awesome stuff Saul Bass did, for example:
So, so cool, man.
Later.
See if you can guess these songs by their visual representation of their lyrics. The more common a word is in the song, the larger it is in the image. Wheee! Fun right?
First person to post all 10 correctly in the comments wins nothing, save some respect or something. Not from me, mind you – I ain’t got no respect left to give, players.

By the way, is it weird that I want to frame some of these and put them up on my wall?
This is a visual representation of my most-played artists over the last six months.

A couple of weeks ago I joined the CD Cover Meme Group in Flickr and submitted a couple of my own creations. It’s pretty cool and funny at times – you have to create a CD cover based on the following rules:
1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
2. www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
Here are the two I submitted to the group originally:
So I think I’m content. Content with all the widget-noodling and php script editing and css modifications and other nerdy-sounding phrases that make this whole changeover seem much tougher than it really is.
Welcome, friends, family, whoever, to the new daveakins.com. I hope you find it enjoyable. If not, there’s no one else to blame but myself.
Without putting you through insufferable aforementioned nerdy-sounding phrases, here are some of the things I’ve done ’round here:
Um, I think that’s pretty much it: blog, widgets, something-something, yadda yadda. Oh, if you run into any issues or something doesn’t look right, please let me know. And comment. Thanks!
