I wonder what a time-based display of the cloud would look like, and tell you? I mean, generating a cloud for ever week/month/page-of-tweets and generating an animation to show its evolution over time. Or, starting from a blank cloud, and adding the terms over time to see it evolve to its current state. Could be interesting to show trends (words growing and shrinking over time) and maybe to cross-correlate with others' clouds (which could be done on an absolute calendar timeline, or a relative days-from-first-tweet timeline). @alan I should also be concerned about @kmcphee, mrs @sleslie, and mrs @courosa, given the prominence of their significant others’ in my tweetcloud ;-)

We locally generated a few clouds for the power tweeters we follow. I am actually considering doing my dissertation on Folksonomies and Tag clouds and their relationship with teaching and learning. Would appreciate any ideas on that front. No problem. We locally generated a few clouds for the power tweeters we follow.
