When I was enduring a painfully extended journey home from
Science Online 2012 I kept thinking about the essence of the meeting.
And for reasons I am not entirely clear on, the essence kept coming up as single words. So I tried to write them down but it was a bit too vague … so then I thought – what about giving those words some friends …
So I decided to try to come up with 100 words to complete the phrase “Scientists have …” I made a list and then gave each word a “weight” and used Wordle.Net to make a word cloud with them.
This word cloud, in the context of “Scientists have …” captures a lot of meeting for me.
Would be great to see other people come up with their 100 words for this …
