What about a true Tags-cloud plugin?

Postby -aat- on Fri Dec 29, 2006 5:17 pm

I search a tags cloud plugin which allow users to include tags in their articles. These tags would be visible on each page of the blog and link to the search engine with the tag as keyword. I found a "tags cloud" in the wiki but it is a "categories cloud". And I found also a real tags cloud in this board, but it doesn't work with the 1.1.
This is a classic plugin, really nice for SEO!

What's the difference between categories and tags? Can't you use the categories of the post as the metadata keywords? Semantically I see no difference.

Usually, people that use Tags cloud (i.e: in wordpress) put at least 30-40 keywords in the cloud. It represents topics of the articles, more than catégories. Sometimes the tags are extracted directly from the articles by analysing words density. A user can have only 2 categories in his blog (My job, my wife), but the visitors would be interested in viewing serveral tags to access the content (Programming/computers/my boss/shopping/gifts/love/sex).
