Holy crap. That is cool! Now I want a book so I can do it too. :)
it's like a found poem--that you wrote! add it to your readings set list. neat.
Heh. I'd thought about that, Shanna....
soo cool! how did you/amazon do that?
I reckon Amazon was either provided a text file of my book (and any others that have been concorded (?)), or they've scanned it in themselves. Dunno, really. I just stumbled on it.
Paul: this is so cool. I love how "heart" and "love" and "world" are some of your most common words. How do you get the results? Is it only at Amazon?
That's so COOL! I want to "CONCORDIZE" everything now!
Paul,
I love that! I checked out my book too. Very cool.
Thanks for this. ( I would have never seen it!)
