Bible study shortcut

To some of you "Bible study shortcut" may sound awful (sort of like the Time/Life Book of Home Dentistry).  But hear me out.  In InterVarsity we love to do inductive Bible study (observe, interpret, apply).  In the observe stage on of the key things to look for is repetition.  Here's where the shortcut comes in.  Actually, let's not call it a shortcut, but a supplement.  There is a website called Wordle where you simply paste a text (for example Daniel chapter 1), and magically your text turns into a picture.  The most used words are printed larger.  I find it visually appealing and it gives me a quick impression of the passage.
  Wordle: Daniel 1 (NIV)
