navigation and popularity ranking.</b> In fact, a tag is keyword
assigned
to a piece of information. It helps describe an item and allows it to

cloud to a SharePoint site pages</b>. Being combined in a single
solution, these two
web-parts provide users with powerful tools for structuring and
effective usage
of information based on the tag cloud principles. <b>With Virto Tag
Cloud you can
