If you are curious to know what kind of people are following you on Twitter, check out Twitter Sheep.
It takes you Twitter login credentials, grabs the bio from the profile of your Twitter followers and creates a colorful Wordle like tag cloud that gives a quick overview of what all these followers actually do.

Twitter sheep is a creation of Michael Young, Nick Bilton and Ted Roden – they all work for The New York Times and I am therefore not really worried about sharing my Twitter password this service. Thank you Silvia.

How can we enter twitter password on that site ,that’s cause of concern for me.

That’s fantastic. Its some what similar to tweetscoop. But Twittersheep is just throwing the tag cloud when clicking on the some words. It would have been great if the click would direct to a list of people of the tags category (our followers.) Waiting for such a related app.

same here… many twitter widgets out there. not the original twitter domain but ask for your twitter username and password…?

I agree with Venkat and TechMeta, it doesn’t sound good. If I want to know what kind of people, see their posts and their site if they have one.

yes , this doesn’t make sense to me either .

They aren’t asking for Twitter password anymore… It asks only for your twitter username and then creates tag cloud.
Thanks for sharing this cool service!
