I came across this great tool Zemanta via a post on Twitter and is also featured on TechCrunch. It allows you to find contextually relevant links, pictures, related content and tags from the net that you can add to a WordPress blog post you are writing with one click. Zemanta uses an internally developed semantic analysis engine and will only suggest Creative Commons content so there are no issues with legality of using the content on your site.
Currently it is works with Firefox and TypePad, self hosted WordPress, wordpress.com and Blogger blogs although they are looking at adding Movable type and also LiveWriter to the mix.
I have been testing it on some of my blogs and so far it has been great for adding some color to my posts with image suggestions and also the automatic tagging is my favorite feature of this. You can download Zemanta for free now. It was a winning startup idea at Seedcamp and has just raised more funding this year so I am looking forward to seeing what other great functions they come up with. This has made blogging much more fun.
