Coding Tricks: Categories via ZoomClouds

Silly Me! It must have been the late night hour or my fervour to try out del.icio.us. But I realised I can run the same Del.icio.us Categories paradigm using ZoomClouds which I already installed since this blog first started.

The principle is simple. As long as there is a URL that directly links to the tagged content, you can use it.

Here's the bad. ZoomClouds picks keywords from your content so it may not pick up the exact words you want it to tag.

Hmm... time consuming vs adding a few more words to make ZoomClouds tag it...

UPDATE: See how I have done it at Strange Machines on the right nav bar.

One problem with using ZoomClouds is if you have not used it from the start of your blog, it will miss the early posts since it only tags from the time you installed it on your blog. I am wondering if we can trick it by changing the chronology of the posts to ascending. But then again we miss the middle posts.
