Collecting The Set
I took a few minutes to play with Google Sets this morning. I gave it "hero", "heroine", "theme", "setting" and "climax" and then clicked on the large set button. It did very well with a large list of terms, including "character", "rising action", "conflict" and "marrator". I tried a list of "knife", "killer", "motive", "clues" and "suspects", but it was unable to help me there. the group of "outlaw", "sheriff", "gunfighter", "jail" and "saloon" returned "sheriff", "jail", "gunfighter" and "coroner". So while it's fun to play with I'm not sure it's quite ready for regular use yet. I hope they'll keep tweaking it for those of us who work with words and also love to play with words.
