apparently all of the above are "popular tags" - which are, I believe, some kind of new-fangled facebook web 2.0 type thing where stuff is like, tagged as stuff.

90% of the above makes me angry.

watmm.

I think at the moment for 'popular' read 'only'

tells you who's bothering to use the tag function

I think we're probably going to go to a "closed" tag system where we set the tags and people choose what fits - better organization.

Still, it's a great way to find things (assuming they are tagged correctly, that is).

Personally I hope Im looking at you joyrex becomes more and more popular.

Make Tag Clouds Relevant to Your Users

 

Tag clouds are best when they are relevant to the user's particular interests. For example, a tag cloud that shows popular tags of the last few days is likely to be more interesting (to the breathing) than a tag cloud that shows popular tags "of all time." Also, if you filter for recent activity, the content of your tag clouds will change every day, rather than remaining static.
