Tool Tip Tuesday: Magnetic Poetry

If you have fond memories of playing with magnetic poetry but not so fond memories of cleaning it up later, online magnetic poetry is the tool for you.  The people behind those magnetized parts of speech have created an online application that allows you to drag and drop combinations of words into various types of poems.  Just like the original, you are limited to what words are available on the magnets but you can generate new words to try to get the one you want.  There are two family-friendly sets, nature and geek, but for the more adventurous, Magnetic Poetry offers several other sets, but be advised they may contain words not appropriate for small children or school settings.
