Tweet 3D Launched

I’ve been tweeting for a month or so now (see sidebar for latest tweets) and just launched a mashup of Twitter’s public RSS feed and a 3D Flash tag cloud as a “what if” experiment. This is a simple demonstration of the ability to pull information feeds together and create a visual representation of them (in this case).

Here’s the link: www.tweet3d.com

The visual tool allows you to view any user’s tweets as a floating tag cloud. The engine filters the posts to create an emphasis on the topics the user is tweeting about so you can quickly get an idea of the topics they have written about recently.

Thanks to Roy Tanck for the open source Flash cloud.

UPDATE 30 Sept: You can now link directly to your own tag cloud using the ‘twitterid’ parameter. The link is generated dynamically for you when you use the site and you can bookmark it or send it to your friends.
