If you don't know what a tag cloud is go to wikipedia first.

Check out Tag Crowd. Copy and paste any text to make your own tag cloud to visualize word frequency. Try it with a resume or a job description and see the resulting cloud image. Do you like it? Does it have any relevance? Could you ever see this as a useful tool? Why or why not? Let's hear what you think.

Awesome! Thanks Maren. So do you put your job descriptions in to see how pointed your text is? Could that help determine how your jobs might appear in relevancy rankings?

Have you ever gotten a word cloud from a candidate as another means of representing themselves? If not, what would you think if you did?

LOL. I should have clarified...in addition to a resume/CV of course :)
