Playing around with tagging on my wiki and the tag cloud that resulted. This is interesting because I really need to consider how I am tagging each page. I tried to decide what information was important to include; content of the page, type of information, authors of various resources included in each page. I have never used a tag cloud to decide if I wanted to look further into a site, but after creating one, I can definitely see the value in this. I wonder if any of my students or collegues use tag sites when choosing online resources? I wonder how many even know they are there. This reminds me of Wordle - are the two one in the same? Something to look further into.
