Pub Chat Wordclouds

As an experiment I ran some of our team Skype logs through Wordle to generate some word clouds and see which words were most often uttered during discussions on our projects.
The first image below is from the Means of Escape chat, and the one below it from another, unnanounced project.

Interesting results! The words that showed most prominence make a lot of sense - work, good, need, think, done indicate progress, weapons, map, code, and document were some of the most talked about deliverable artefacts and others like haha, lol, oh and shit remind us that yep, we are human (and we make mistakes!).

Project 2 seems to be a lot more formal than Means of Escape, with more focus on stringent processes (testing, milestone, meeting, et al), which accurately reflects the way we've been operating.


I'm unsure as to whether I should be pleased or disappointed there's no "beer" in there.
