It creates a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_cloud">tag cloud</a> of the most common #tags being used on twitter <em>right now</em>. Like, <em>now</em>. Right this second. It looks kinda like this:</p> <p><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3645/3411446393_621caa910e_o.png"></p> <p>So as you can see, apparently people are going nuts tagging all their tweets with #ldsconf. I had no idea what it was, so I clicked it and it took me here:</p> <p>http://www.twitscoop.com/twits/search?q=ldsconf</p> <p>Huh. So apparently there&#8217;s some sort of Latter Day Saint conference going on and a whole bunch of people are tweeting about it. I&#8217;m guessing from some of the other tags in the tag cloud that Elder Hales is currently giving a presentation. Right now. And I can read people&#8217;s thoughts on what he&#8217;s saying as he&#8217;s saying it.</p> <p>And now the word &#8220;arrow&#8221; is huge cause apparently Miley Cyrus just asked how to reply to people and everyone is telling her to click the reply arrow. Eat that, <span class="caps">LDS</span>.
