  As a reader of other people’s blogs, I don’t use their tag clouds. I just don’t find it useful except a signal what the main scope of the blog MIGHT be. But that could be misleading also.

  Also when the cloud gets too jammed with different tag keywords, I scarcely find it useful at all –from the standpoint of clickability.

  As you can tell, I opted not to use a tag cloud. Especially on a company/business blog.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
