I have a long list of “little web application”\/JavaScript include composites I’d like to write. One that’s painfully rared it’s head a lot recently is something that would create a tag cloud out of all the tag-silos I send tags down: flickr<\/a>, del.icio.us<\/a>, Technorati<\/a> (via tags in this blog<\/a>), and other tag-enabled sites like upcoming.org.<\/p>\n

Usually, these sites have their own<\/i> tag-cloud “wdigets” (JavaScript includes), but I haven’t come across one that sucks in tags from all those sources and then presents a view along the lines of “Coté’s Tags.”<\/p>\n

The first, perhaps core, problem would be figuring out where to go when you click on a tag. For example, I tag a lot of things in all places with “sysmgmt” (short for “systems management”). How would you display all the links in del.icio.us<\/a>, Technorati\/blog<\/a>, and flickr (yes, there’s plenty in there<\/a>)? More than likely, you’d have another page that listed them side-by-side…and then things start getting more complex than just a simple JavaScript include.<\/p>\n
