10 words that define you

I just read an interesting post from Go Big Always where they used IBM’s Many Eyes software to visualize the top 10 words used on a particular person’s blog. The only problem is that they only looked at blogs of complete social media geeks so I decided to my own research.

I have a blog mining tool at my disposal called RelevantNoise which captures posts from millions of blogs. I can search against a person’s name then cluster the results and find out the most common words or phrases used in conjunction with the name. Some of them read like a Haiku.
