Zemanta has been very good to me this week, particularly for locating and inserting relevant pictures into blog posts. Try the bookmarklet today! http://labs.zemanta.com/bookmar...
Last night I needed headshots of two blogger friends and it quickly retrieved some nice ones off of Flickr. Earlier in the day I wanted a shot of the famed Rendezvous BBQ Nachos from Memphis's Redbirds baseball park and Zemanta unearthed a great CC-licensed shot which happened to have been uploaded by someone I know. - Daniel J.

It's also good about dropping in captions and source links even though Blogger or Wordpress make that a bit harder than it needs to be. - Daniel J. Pritchett
Hi, Andraz from Zemanta Here. We always want to hear what else you would expect from a smart tool like Zemanta? - Andraž Tori
My #1 peeve with Zemanta at the moment is that it doesn't sense the caps and spacing I've used in my existing tags. If I've got a tag for "Sharepoint" and you recommend "Microsoft SharePoint" I'm quite likely to use yours and then unwittingly introduce clutter to my tagging system. Can you do a bit better job of scanning and matching my existing system? - Daniel J. Pritchett from IM
Thanks for stopping by. - Daniel J. Pritchett from IM
Daniel, that would be next-to-impossible, firefox plug-in can't see your old posts. depending on the platform you are using, you could maybe instruct it to lower-case or camel-case all your tags, so that wouldn't be a problem anymore. Or maybe we should go lowercase only? - Andraž Tori
I figured that would be difficult, but you deserved the truth all the same. Your tag implementation is frustrating to use. Probably WordPress's fault more than anything. - Daniel J. Pritchett from IM
Daniel, thank you for information! This is important to know - haven't yet got complains about that. What about other kinds of suggestions and interaction, any complaints? Also what are other sources that you want suggested? - Andraž Tori
Holy smokes, what a great tool! Never heard of Zemanta before, but can't wait to get home tonight to start using it with my WordPress blog. Thanks, Daniel! - Mark Traphagen
