What is Zemanta? It is a very helpful application for blog publishers.  It provides the writer with possible pictures and images in public domain, links to websites, links to Wikipedia articles, and a list of possible related articles to choose from all while you’re in the process of writing.

The program picks up key words from your article and automatically provides you with a number of different media choices that might enhance and enrich your post.

For example, in this article, the ‘Zemanta’ image was provided by the program, also with a point and click I was able to add a link to the Zemanta website, Windows Live Writer, and all the ‘related articles’ at the bottom. What a handy tool and a real time saver!
