tag clouds in PBwiki
The more people who ask this question, the more it gets noticed.

Inappropriate?I hadn't thought of using one on my wiki, but I can see how it would be really helpful in navigating a larger wiki with lots of pages. Check out http://tagcrowd.com/, I played with it a bit, and it was pretty nifty. I'm sure there's other tag cloud generators out there, but that was the first one I found. Also, I like the blue colors :)

Inappropriate?Widget, an unofficial PBwiki add-on, does have a tag-cloud generator, based on the tags you've inserted to your wiki.
If you're already using Widget, you would include this code in an HTML plugin:
<script>widget.tags.cloud();</script>
If you're not, the full code would be:
<script src="http://widget.pbwiki.com/widget_lib.js"></script>
<script>widget.tags.cloud();</script>
Info can be found at: http://widget.pbwiki.com (but remember, Widget is unofficial!)

Inappropriate?I had thought about how this might not contribute to the organization of the content enough to be worth the time invested. However, the way I have the front page organized there is plenty of space for it and it would make the wiki more dynamic.

Inappropriate?OK, I'm sure this one can be filed under "obvious," but I'm not figuring it out.
I haven't figured out how to enter tags for the pages. Now that I'm sure it can be useful, I went back and tried to figure it out again to no avail.
Is this option not available on the free version? Am I just missing something right under my nose?
I’m befuddled

Inappropriate?Tags aren't entirely obvious in 1.0. If you look at the bottom of your page in the Page Information tab on the left hand side, you should find a little line for inserting tags.
2.0 does tags a whole lot better. Thankfully. -
Inappropriate?No worries, happens to the best of us :)
Go down to the bottom of each page you want to tag, ans in the footer, there is a line of text that says "No tags yet" "learn more" "+" Learn More will take you to a help topic, but clicking on the little + will let you add tags. You can add as many as you want as far as I know.
Have fun, and good luck! -
Inappropriate?OK! I got it. Now I'm curious how to save the tags after I type them into the little box.

Inappropriate?Also, the Widget doesn't work in 2.0 since we don't have JavaScript enabled for the time being.
