Cluster Cloud

Cluster Clouds give a visual representation of important terms about a subject. Each term is a link. The size of the term indicates how often it is found. A down and dirty cluster maker can be found at:
http://cloud.clusty.com/

Try it out and send me an email with your cloud information (found in the copy and paste box. Highlight the text and use edit/copy or ctrl+c.)

Here is a cloud for Library 2.0
