Comments on: Algorithm to generate tag clouds http://www.thinkstick.net/2008/05/algorithm-to-generate-tag-clouds/ Design, Technology, Innovation, and Being a Stick!

The frequency/font size issue is interesting, but I'm wondering, did you find out anything about laying out the text? Most tag clouds are just horizontal. But the tag clouds on wordle.net are beautiful. I'm interested in UI design, but don't know much about how to get started, do you have any personal projects (outside of work) that you can share or discuss? - Evelyn:) I was inspired to think about tag cloud algorithms after playing on wordle.net.
