Parliamentarian Tag Clouds
This project is now live on gesagt-im-parlament.ch!
All political affairs submitted by parliamentarians are being stored and published on the webservers at parlament.ch, e.g.
- parliamentary initiatives, motions and postulates
- questions and interpellations
- reports of the committees
- and so on….
We scrape this textual content off the web and create tag clouds for each politician.
