Tag Clouds

[RifRaf]

I Would love to see tag clouds in mediamonkey, has anyone tried to do this before?

a simple panel that could be docked somewhere and configured to show things like play history based on artists, genres or moods
maybe it could be changed to show a tag cloud based on entire collection or a filter as an option

based on a quick google seems like there are ways to do a sql query and generate one from that, http://www.petefreitag.com/item/396.cfm (how to make a tag cloud) , some of the comments on that page have more links

helium has had this feature for a while for artists and genres so should be doable in mediamonkey, any thoughts?

just made this up from by exporting last 1000 genre play data into this web app: http://tagcrowd.com/


or by recently played artists..

Yes, this should be possible via scripting. I've put it on my list, but it's a long list so hopefully someone else decides to take a look at this before I get round to it!

you can use one of the classification nodes to this effect

I think it's the display that they're after.

This would be even more fun (like last.fm clouds) if MM would support more and free custom classifications and tagging!!

Like I proposed earlier http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =4&t=30902

(I just had to point to that wishlist post of mine again )

Just to whet your appetite, I've been working on this script and it's starting to look pretty nice!
