1quintagroup.portlet.cumulus is a Plone product that allows you to add tag cloud
2portlets to your Plone site. Your site's tags (content categories are used as
3tags) are displayed using a Flash movie that rotates them in 3D. It works just
4like a regular tags cloud, but is more visually exciting. This is the WordPress
5WP-Cumulus plugin ported to Plone as a portlet.

7When you add this portlet anywhere in the site it will display all site's tags.
8If you have installed QuillsEnabled product this portlet will display only blog's
9tags when rendered inside blog.
