Action for Happiness

I have just followed this organisation on Twitter. I love a group that has a positive focus and I am behind them all the way. I have a thing for word clouds - here is one from their website - They asked members what happiness means to them. This inspiring tag cloud summarises what people said...

Hope you enjoy it.

Tumblr

I have a Tumblr blog which I treat a bit different from this blog. Tumblr is good to use as a scrapbook to stick images that illustrate with my personal style. I love the way it looks and I am really pleased with it. Here is the link: http://journalofgill.tumblr.com/.

I recently used a cloud generator to see what my blog look like in this way. Here it is:

I was really pleased with the result. I have an idea to repeat this excercise throughout the year to see how it changes. I am guessing it won't change too much.
