As an ICT teacher I spend a lot of time trying to keep up with new uses of ICT in schools - not just for myself, but for my colleagues too. I found Wordle a few months back, and I love it. You can enter text or just words, and create 'word clouds' and patterns in different colours and fonts. Changing the size of the word is done by repeating it - the more you repeat, the bigger it becomes. Clicking on a button will reorganise the pattern. You can save them to your computer (or a blog), or print them out.
Here are some of my favourite Wordle pictures that I've done using well known quotations.
