With a new year just days away we asked you to take stock of 2011. Michigan’s economy shows signs of improving, but times are still tough for many around the state.
So we decided to put the question directly to you. What was good about 2011? What didn’t go well?
These word clouds sum up the responses listeners and readers sent on Facebook or through the Public Insight Network. You can view the word clouds by clicking on the image above.
Thoughts of what made this year good are in the first word cloud, followed by thoughts of what did not go well in the second word cloud. We made that one black and grey, just for effect.
