Friday Flickr Fun: add a Flickr tag cloud to your site

It has been said that the "tag cloud is the mullet of the internet," and who doesn't want to be the height of current fashion? Dan Steingart has written a PHP script that will pull your tags from Flickr and arrange them in a tag cloud for inclusion on your site. There are a number of parameters you can tweak including min and max font sizes, sort order, color, and username by applying arguments to the URL. If you set this up, post up a link in the comments and, um, show us your mullet.

Thanks for the link, and I would love to hear your readers' comments and suggestions on this bit of code.

This tag cloud technology is very cool. Does anyone know if this is being used for indexing news stories? I think it would be very cool if the day's news stories were indexed into a tag cloud to give you a high level picture of what is being talked about!
