Stuart Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Think you're talking about tag clouds - Google used to offer an API to create and embed them but I can't find it anymore? A quick search will find a series of jQuery plugins that will take the pain out of creating them. As a counter Jakob Nielsen (a usability expert) has raised his concerns over their effectiveness in terms of usability so have a think if they're going to be useful for your users. They became somewhat of a web design fad over the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
