WordPress Plugin: Cumulus - 3D Tag Cloud

This interactive flash plugin - WP-Cumulus by Roy Tanck - displays a three-dimensional infographic sphere composed of your tags. Very cool.

The sphere responds to the cursor position by revolving in the opposite direction. When you hover over a tag, it is highlighed with a box, and 'floats' toward the front. As you follow (continue hovering) the tag toward the center of the sphere, it slows and eventually stops.

See it in action by hovering over the 'Keywords' tab on the sidebar and on the archives page.

The sphere looks better as you increase the size, see both the screenshot below and on the author's site. I've inquired about how to call the plugin with custom options to make it appear larger on the archives page.

The WP-Cumulus plugin works for WordPress versions 2.3+, and has been ported to Movable Type.
