WP Tag Cloudwp_tag_cloud();
The wp_tag_cloud() function displays a list of tags in what is called a 'tag cloud', where the size of each tag is determined by how many times that particular tag has been assigned to posts. Beginning with Version 2.8, the taxonomy parameter was added so that any taxonony could be used as the basis of generating the cloud. That means that a cloud for Categories or any other Custom Taxonomies can be presented to visitors. Arguments are passed in as either an array or a query string.
