Another (Easy) Way to Share Tagxedo Images with Friends
Making Tagxedo artwork is Fun. Sharing it with friends is more fun. But doing so with ease is the most fun!
In that spirit, let me introduce the new "Save To Imgur" option. Imgur is an excellent image hosting site, started by Alan Schaaf (a computer science student at Ohio State) only a year ago. Alan executed the idea behind Imgur very well, and Imgur has become immensely popular and now ranked 147 in U.S. traffic according to Alexa. Amazing, isn't it? [No, Alan did not pay me to write this :D]
If you click the "Imgur" button under the "Save" menu, the current Tagxedo will be saved as a Jpeg, and uploaded to Imgur for (public) sharing. It took only a few seconds to upload, and once done, you'll get an URL of the image uploaded. Now you can Tweet it, share it with your Facebook friends, show it on your blog, email the link, etc. Here's an example of a picture I uploaded to Imgur:
Of course, there are many other ways to share with friends (e.g. "Save to Web" and share the ".../artful/..." link), but if you like to show a picture (say, to impress your iPhone friends), Imgur is definitely an option to consider.

P. S. Hmm, on second thought... Many I should also add "Tweet This Tagxedo" and "Share this Tagxedo" buttons? Let me think about this :D
