What Chicagotalks was Talking About — Labor Day 2008

Chicago Talks, September 2, 2008

“Tag Clouds” are a visualization tool. As an online publication adds “tags” which are identifiers designed to make electronic searches work effectively, the idea of viewing content by creating an image in which the most common tags are listed, and the size of the word indicates how often that tag was used, is gaining popularity. Our human senses, especially our visual sense,can detect patterns quickly, in ways that a top to bottom analysis or simple count might miss. We say goodbye to summer with our cloud tage, courtesy of Wordle – chicagotalks.org as of Labor Day, 2008.
