CK Clouds http://www.librarything.com/commonknowle... aren't updating anymore. Right now the clouds are reflecting data from August or earlier.

I know I saw this issue posted before somewhere, but I can't find the topic.

It'd be real nice to see clouds working again, as it was a fun way to browse through books, since the normal CK browse/search has been disabled for a couple of years.

CK search was re-enabled a while ago, at least in low-demand times. I was able to search it just now.

So it has, though that's not the browse feature I was talking about.

Though the CK browse feature that used to be here http://www.librarything.com/commonknowle... still is disable. Instead there's a link to CK clouds... which is disabled.

That link to CK clouds works for me.

Sorry, I miswrote. CK clouds aren't disabled. The link works for me too. It's just that the data displayed is 2+ months old.

You said "CK browse/search". What CK search feature is currently disabled?

>7 Forget it. I just want clouds to reflect current data.

The preceding 7 messages are pretty funny. "Who's on first?"

Anyway, this was also posted about here -- http://www.librarything.com/topic/21640 (the very end of the thread) . You can see the problem easily by looking at blurbers or publishers' editors: both clouds include things like "Booklist" or other inappropriate organizational / publication data, but when you click on the item, the data has already been cleaned up. This has been so for more than a couple of months. I can't vouch for whether or not other fields are updating correctly.

I was trying to find the thread it'd been reported in! Thanks!
