You come across as knowledgeable and nice/fun... a good combination! I don't like tag clouds on blogs because they don't seem to add any/much value to me. They seem to be cluttered (I never read most of the words, just the two or three big ones), and I haven't found value in clicking on words in a tag cloud. So all of this is kind of ironic in light of the fact that we just introduced tag clouds into <a href="http://www.Jibberjobber.com">JibberJobber</a> (in the Job Journal area) :/ Why? Because functionally they are good. But on a blog they kind of conflict with the Categories. I think it really comes down to real estate... you only get so much space, and too many people put things that don't add value and distract the reader. If you want to provide good navigation to your reader I suggest you have a good (well thought-out) category list, and a search function. Tag clouds seem to be redundant. Just my opinion :) :) BTW, I'm not sure that "expert" fits me ... I think I'm just opinionated.

I'll definitely be taking them into consideration. It's cool getting advice from an expert. You said that you're not big on tag clouds. Is there a specific reason? or is it personal preference? Just curious. Hey, thanks so much for the write up and all the tips! I’ll definitely be taking them into consideration. It’s cool getting advice from an expert.
