Tweetcloud

I started to see people's Tweetclouds posted to Flickr and announced on Twitter so I thought I would give it a try. Information visualization has this strange attraction to me. I loved it back in the late 90's when Apple was experimenting with Project X aka HotSauce. Nowadays there are all manner of ways to visualize information. Tweetcloud basically goes through your public tweets and tabulates the occurrence and recurrence of words you use in your posts. It gives you a general idea of what you've been tweeting and any recurring themes. You can also run Tweetclouds of your friends but be aware that if they are verbose the Tweetcloud will take a while to generate.
