Hi All, I'm doing an evaluation of the publically accessible tag cloud generators. Tagging is quite popular now, but most of the tagging activities belong to folksonomy, which users tag manually. Tag cloud generators are used to create tag clouds automatically. There are ways to generate a tag cloud:
1. Given a piece of text, create a tag cloud according to the frequency of the words. 2. Given a URL of a web page, generate a tag cloud based on the existing links on that web page I found several tag cloud generators on the web and use them for my study. Here are these tag cloud generators: http://www.tagcloud-generator.com/ http://www.tocloud.com/ http://www.tag-cloud.de/ http://tagcrowd.com/ http://www.artviper.net/texttagcloud/ http://www.wordle.net Every tag cloud generator has parameter settings, and the outputs from different generators are in different styles. If you are interested in, give it a try and tell me what you think about the generators. Any comments on UI design, generator functions or the generated tag clouds are welcome and appreciated.
