Below is a WordPress Plugin called wp-cumulus in action (mouse over it). Basically what it does is – it takes your tags (or categories) and turns them into a rotating 3D navigation.
WP Cumulus Flash tag cloud by Roy Tanck requires Flash Player 9 or better.
Installation of the plugins is simple like all the other wp plugins. Basically you just upload it and activate it. Then in your posts you just insert [WP-CUMULUS] tag wherever you want it to appear. And if you want to put it somewhere in your blog theme, then you should use this code <?php wp_cumulus_insert(); ?>.
It displays the whole thing in flash movie (.swf) file, of which the width and height can be adjusted by you in the plugin options. You can also change the background and text colors. And either display tags or your blog’s categories.

lol, man this is cool. I played with it for like 5 mins. before I wrote this comment.
Well I finally add this the other day and I loved it!!
indocontest, it could slow down your blog a little… especially if you set the dimensions of the flash file too big.
Nice plugin, I will try it later..
I saw this plugin recently on another site. It’s good except I think it slows down the page a bit. It sometimes also makes the page look a bit ‘busy’ .

I saw this on a previous blog. I like it except it may slow down the page a bit. It also can make the page too ‘busy’.
It is quite fun though.

Cool plug in! I will try to upload it now and use it on my blog.
Cool plugin Ades.
BTW, could this this plugin will slow down your blog?
Thanks.
I think it will slow down a bit… but if the person is using broadband it’s should be ok.
Wow! Never seen anything like this before. Just added it to my blog, looks cool!
I’m search 3D tag, and I find on this site, thank you, I will plug up on my blog.
Nice feature. It is looking cool, even it means some more processing time for sure.
I didnt decide yet to use this plugin. Because of SEO. I know search spiders doesnt like flash contents.
I’m adding this to my blog now, it is a great plug-in, which I’ve seen many times. Could be a little less useful from an SEO point of view, but I as I had no-followed by previous tags then I don’t see why it should be too detrimental! This blog is a great read, thanks very much and keep posting!
Pretty clever! Wish they will release for blogger soon. By the way, have you guys used this coolest tag cloud in blogger platform?
Thanks for this! I was looking for this plugin but couldn’t find it!
