Wordle now displays a “build number” in the lower right-hand corner of the page, which means that I can now say...
As of build 506, you may now join words together with the tilde character

So, for example, the text “The~Who played Leeds with Mott~the~Hoople and Bruce~Springsteen” might be rendered as
This ought to ease the pain folks have experienced in trying to emit a unicode non-breaking space.

Hey Jonathan, how about dynamic wordclouds using feeds?
I am wordle obsessive. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for letting us use Wordle. I cannot stop thinking about more and more ways to use it.
Where's the "make me a t-shirt" button? ;-) These are much more interesting visually than other "cloud" t-shirts I have seen. Hello? CafePress?
Very addicting. Is there a way to include punctuation, such as a period to represent a URL? Wordle seems to ignore punctuation, where if I put in google.com, everything after the period is ignored. Any suggestions?
I love Wordle. Great going. Is there any way to put in periods as for web names?
This is a really cool application.
Is there anyway to include something where you can draw a shape, and it will fit the words within the shape (using the same principles it does to avoid existing words)?
Thanks Jonathan! This is awesome!
I like the idea presented by Stephanie above. It would be great to be able to define bounding boxes (shapes) and keep all the words inside that shape.
It reminds me of Persian Calligraphy, look at this for instance:

Thanks for this amazing tool. I am an elementary teacher and plan on using it with my students for various things such summarizing a novel, writing key points from history and so on. I can see endless possibilities! You are amazing!
