First Look: Zemanta

Image by Tom Raftery via FlickrToday I noticed an interesting new multi-browser plugin called Zemanta. Having both Firefox installed and a WordPress blog, I decided I would give it a spin and see what it could dig up for me with itself as the topic. So far, it found a nice screenshot and a few good related articles.
Plus, it scans the articles for words it can make link-able with anchor tags, which saves time. And it suggests tags too. Ok, that’s pretty cool.
It looks promising.
For me personally though, I use Windows Live Writer almost exclusively when creating content for my blog. Zemanta works through the browser and only activates when it notices you are on a write post page for WordPress, Blogger, etc. So, I don’t know how much I will use it. We’ll see.
