Experimental Interactive Word Clouds

Here are a few experimental word clouds created using a great free (beta) word cloud generator: Tagul

Facts and figures

This example uses an outline map of Hampshire. Click a word in the cloud to search for that term within the Hampshire’s Facts and Figures web site

  • Although the correct search is launched,  you still need to click the button on the next screen to confirm, which is annoying 
  • As my knowledge of html is currently non-existant I haven’t yet worked out how to automatically run the search on the destination web site
  • I do intend to include the Isle of Wight in the next version!

People and population

The next one shows Population pages within the same site.

Economy

The last example shows information relating to the Economy, also within the Facts and Figures web pages

Many thanks to David Price of Debategraph for bringing Tagul to my attention, as I wasn’t previously aware of it.
