OpenCloud is a Java library for generating and managing tag clouds, similar to those found in many websites.

OpenCloud is an easy to use library, versatile enough to be used in various applications. Basically the user inserts words or word/link pairs into the cloud and sets the parameters that control its structure, such as the number of tags composing the cloud

Then OpenCloud assigns a weight to each tag based on its frequency and gives back the resulting list of weighted tags. The appearence of the cloud can be controlled through HTML/CSS instructions.
