Tweet 3D

tweet3d.com was created in 2009 as a concept to try to create an overview of a person’s tweets by condensing them into a tag cloud and so derive some topic emphasis. It was a bit of fun but has seen widespread (dare I say viral) use worldwide, showing peaks of uptake as different countries discovered it, tweeted and retweeted it. It continues to get steady visits.

The tag cloud was based on work Roy Tanck did for creating tag clouds for blogs and re-purposed for Twitter. The concept was reverse applied to Emissary’s own website to create a high-level “holistic” view on the brand (you can see how it works here) by including some social media aspects as well as corporate messages.
