We stripped out around a dozen words from our source besides the "common english words".

The final source file was nearly 8000 lines long, almost 170,000 words. -Alex /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 10:57 PM, Matthew Wettergreen < [email protected]> wrote: > did you pull any additional stop words from this? > > On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 9:35 PM, Alex Hillman < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Inspired by Angel's sharing of the attendance stats, I wanted to share >> something a little different.... >> >> We've been using basecamp for our primary member communinications since >> Early 2008, when email alone started to fall apart. >> >> I thought it'd be fun to do an export of nearly 4 years of online member >> communication, clean up the cruft, and make a word cloud! >> >> I used Wordle to make an illustration of the top 200 words used in member >> communication. >> >> It's pretty, and awesome.
