My first Google Gadget is at the top of the left column of my blog. I've seen label clouds around and they all used flash so I decided to write one in JavaScript. I figured it would be a good learning experience. This gadget uses JavaScript and jQuery to rotate divs around a single point. Depth is represented by changing the font size and opacity. You can add my gadget to your blogger layout by adding a new gadget and searching for either "Alex Dioso" or "Label Sphere".
I've also updated my .vimrc for use with JavaScript.

I love the idea of the label sphere & added the gadget to my blog except I see only a single line with all the labels jumbled one on top of the other. I'm no techie so I don't know what -- if anything -- I did wrong but I'd sure like to get the sphere thing up & running on my blog http://janrifkinson.blogspot.com/
Thanks
Hi Jan, thank you for notifying me of this. The problem is that I developed the label sphere using Google Chrome and I didn't test any other browsers. I will let you know when it is fixed.
Hi Jan, thanks again for notifying me of the bug in the Label Sphere. I believe I've fixed the problem, I tested it in Google Chrome 4, Firefox 3.6, and Internet Explorer 8.
It's not fixed for all browsers though. Many of my test environments have thrown up flags, including versions of Firefox prior to 3.6.
You need to build it to be more cross platform.

Hi Aaron, thanks for the tip. I'll have to improve my testing techniques.
Great widget. I got really frustrated with the popular flash version as it never really worked properly or consistently. Yours is not as pretty as the flash one but at least it's reliable and works!
Thanks!
Thanks for a great gadget -- just added it to my blog. Question: is there a way I can get it to use all my labels? I have 17 or so right now, but the sphere shows only 10, even though I have the maximum number of labels set to 25.
Thank you for your comment "Jarred, Angela, and Nathan". I will have to look into the problem you mention. It looks like the label sphere is only showing 10 labels for me as well. I'll post an update if I'm able to fix it.
Also I'll be updating the label sphere soon to allow for custom fonts and colors.
Very nice! Thing is, I've been trying desperately to find one that is just a list (like the one you have lower left of your page), preferably alphabetical. Do you have one like that or know where I can find one?
Ruth: The list of labels on the lower left of my page is the basic Label gadget. If you edit your profile and add a new gadget, the Label gadget is under Basics. And it does have an alphabetical sort option :-)
