While looking for information about the Nintendo Wii he had just preordered, Joel Nagy found himself running across a growing number of search results that didn’t have the facts he wanted.

For another interesting take on search clouds, check out my tags implementation on my site (http://neurokinetikz.com). You can filter tags by content type, category, search term, date, user, & creative commons license.
