Mayor Bing, City Council members sworn in

Mayor Bing and new City Council members were sworn in today. Speeches centered on moving into the future and changing the way Detroit does business, reports Michigan Messenger.

An interesting way to visualize the sentiments of the the day is with the text of Mayor Bing's speech made into a word cloud using the website Wordle:

Detroit families are looking forward to "new," and "change" - let's hope by working with the people of the city, "education" and "neighborhoods" will be prominent in the Mayor's speeches and in his agenda in the year to come.
