SpaceBuzz 0.3

With it still being the holidays, I've been trying to catch up with some things I've been meaning to do for ages but not got around to. Today I added a tag cloud to SpaceBuzz. The tag cloud shows the top 20 tags used across 154 blogs in the astronomy blogosphere. The increase in the number of blogs is because I've now added the Cosmic Diary blogs. I'm also testing the idea of letting other people add the tag cloud to their own websites via a simple Javascript line. It is pretty basic at the moment and just links to Technorati for now. When I next get time, I'll sort out linking to special pages for each tag with all the latest posts on it.

If you own one of the blogs on the list but don't use tags, please do consider adding them. Oh, and iya2009 is quickly becoming the de facto tag for all blogs and tweets related to the International Year of Astronomy.
