Category Cloud

Posted on July 13, 2006

UPDATE: I have changed to the Category Cloud plugin as the weighted categories plug in discussed here hasn’t been updated for the latest version of Wordpress.

I have added a category cloud to this blog so you can get some idea of what it looks like. In case you are looking at this post from a reader or somewhere you cannot see the sidebar, it looks like this:

admin advertising biometrics blogger blogging books brisbane comics computer conference DMCA DRM economics extraterrestrial life face recognition fingerprint gadget gaze tracking google howto humour listing lockpick map movies nofollow not me open source opengl PhD
photos podcast research science security sf spam speech syndication tablet terrorism usa video wordpress yuck zoomr

So, at this current moment my blog is about biometrics, humour, comics and security. Good mix, I think.

By the way, the plugin I used to get this happening is weighted categories. Instructions are available there, but if you can’t get his CSS to work make sure you put id="categories" on whatever is containing your list. In my case the code is

<ul id="categories">
<!-- insert weighted categories code here -->
</ul>

    [...] The wordpress plugin came from hitormiss, which I got to froma random search that hit this blog – and I’m glad because he included the little id=”categories” part I had missed. [...]
