I also liked the tadalist. I made a list of places I would like to go visit for fun. This has a ton of possibilities. You could have students make list of writing topics, steps in a procedure, make a list of words they don't know in a reading passage, and so on.
What I like most about these sites is that they are free!!!
Wordle is great used like you describe to show students the words they overuse also. It makes those words very large!
