Top 50 words used in the speech. Word’s used at least four times and filtering out of common words like “and” and “of.”

Previously we examined the word content of convention speeches by Sarah Palin and Barack Obama. See those charts.

Well, let’s look at the tagcrowd analysis of her speech content. She delivered the address at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis, Minn.

This tagcrowd data comes in from reader Riff Viana who also promises a Wordle version soon. We’ll post result too as an update as soon as we get it.

Wordle version has been added below

I love it when readers play with the tools I am using.

I asked Riff if they liked tagcrowd, “I thought it was pretty cool. Could be more interesting with more visualization styles.”
I agree Wordle looks cooler but tagcrowd is more accurate.
