What is a standard deviation?

It is a measure for a set of numbers telling you how far numbers are on average away from the average. For details, look the term up on Wikipedia.

You can use it for setting up tag clouds that scale with your blog, in a sense. Other than dropping a fixed number or percentage of tags, it will truly remove exactly those tags with significantly less posts than your average tag has.

How can I help?

You can

• use Significant Tags,
• vote on the WordPress plugin portal for it,
• report bugs and/or propose ideas for improvement and
• blog about your experience with it.
