Playing with Technology

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. ~Arthur C. Clarke

Make Cloud a bust?

August 28, 2008 by Jon

So my RSS feed tagcloud doesn’t seem to be showing. Is the Pipe broken or is Make Cloud broken? I have no idea and will investigate. It may not matter as I noticed the site was super slow to load when it was working. I also have to ask myself what the point was. Why did I want to have a tag cloud pulled from all the RSS feeds I read? Ideally a glance at that cloud could give me a sense of what was happening in the technology world since that is what most of the feeds are. It it the same reason people want to make clouds from their marketing messages. You want to see what the text is conveying as the important message. This seems to be a failed experiment and I really couldn’t find a better alternative. I guess it’s back to the drawing board. Do you think it’s worth it?
