Paper Abstract:      In this paper we presented a tool called QueryCloud for exploring related resources in Web encyclopedias. Typically, users come to an encyclopedia from a search engine such as Google, Yahoo! or Bing and upon reading the first page on the site they leave it immediately thereafter. To tackle this problem in systems such as Web shops, additional browsing tools for easy finding of related content are provided. Thus, in this paper, we present a novel tool called QueryCloud that links related content in an encyclopedia in a usable and visually appealing manner. The tool combines two promising approaches – tag clouds and historic search queries – into a new single one. Hence, each document in the system is enriched with a tag cloud containing collections of related concepts populated from historic search queries. To test the idea, a prototypical implementation tool has been implemented and integrated within a Web encyclopedia called Austria-Forum. To evaluate the system, a theoretical framework was invented to conduct the potentials and limitations of the tool.
