You already know how to search by simply typing a word into the "What's on your mind" box, but did you know you can search through tag clouds as well? In fact, when looking at cultural trends, this is probably the best method.
To search via tag clouds, click on the "thoughts" tab at the top of the page. Next, click on the "Tag clouds" link seen next to the arrow in the picture below. Now you can begin searching. Each time you click on a tag, it will narrow your search to include only thoughts and tags related to the first tag you clicked. You can continue refining your search by clicking on more tags. Anytime you want to see the actual thoughts simply click on the "grid" view link which is next to the "Tag Cloud" link.
You will also notice a "Source Cloud." This shows where all of the thoughts came from. Typically a website or blog, the source cloud will also show trends and popularity of various web destinations.
One last thing, you can also see the tag cloud of yourself and you collections. If you click the "Me" tab at the top of the page, you will see the same "tag cloud" link on the left side of the page. The same applies when you are looking inside a collection.
