	Word Cloud Generator by elicochran :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Stumbled on this today, http://wordle.net/ It generates a very attractive "word cloud" based on the frequency of words in a source document. I ran the Fluid Web site through it, and the wiki. Interesting results. I think this is mostly just a toy, but I do wonder if it is an interesting way of evaluating site content. - Eli . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

	Re: Word Cloud Generator by Yuji Shinozaki :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message A totally tangential question: Is there any research or expert opinion that speaks to how effective tag clouds are? I have seen them and tried to use them in blogs and wiki's, but have yet to find them useful (or compelling after the initial curiosity wears off). That said, these are probably the most attractive tags clouds I have come across. yuji ----- On Oct 1, 2008, at 5:06 PM, Eli Cochran wrote: > Stumbled on this today, http://wordle.net/ > > It generates a very attractive "word cloud" based on the frequency > of words in a source document. > > I ran the Fluid Web site through it, and the wiki.
