Hi, What would be the best and creative way to style the tags?

I don't know about best or most creative. Depends on your design I suppose.

OK, take http://technorati.com/ homepage for example.

I could only think it this  way:

.bush {font-size: 1.5em}
.comedy {font-size: .9em}
.democrates {font-size: 1.2em}

or more generic naming:

.big {font-size: 1.5em}
.small {font-size: .9em}
.medium {font-size: .12em}

<li><span class="big">bush</span> <span class="small">comedy</ span><span class="medium">democrates</span></li>



You mean more specifically "tag clouds"?
Yes, thanks. You can tell, my vacobulary is very limited  :)


What the hell with all those <em>????

In this situation, the nested <em>'s are being used to give greater
emphasis to those tags most used and the CSS styling probably reflects
this with font-sizing and colouring.


Not sure though. Here is the CSS

*  The Hot, Hot Heat Map
======================================================================== ====================== */
.heatmap {font-size: 0.97em; text-transform: lowercase; }
.heatmap li {display: inline;}
.heatmap em {font-style: normal; font-size: 1.03em;}

I am thinking it maybe control by js. So one <em> increases x em in font size.
or it's for SEO.

Can someone verify?

Thanks!
