July 1, 2010 — permalinkGuest post by Boštjan 'Bos' Špetič, Zemanta CEO
About a year ago this blog featured Zemanta, a tool that helps you get more out of blogging. Previously, Blogger users could install a Zemanta browser plugin to recommend content while you blog, enabling you to:
- Read news to learn more about the topic
- Link articles to improve the value of your post
- Use pictures to make your post richer
1. Click this link: Add Zemanta gadget. It will take you to a page to add the Zemanta gadget to your blog:
2. Select one of your blogs in the drop-down box, and click Add Zemanta. This will add the gadget to the post editor for your selected blog, and take you to a new post page.
3. You will see Zemanta is already turned on, waiting for you to start using it.
That's it! You are now all set up to boost your blogging. Simply write a couple of sentences and the recommendations will show up automatically. You can preview them and then simply click on an item to add it to the post.
To learn more about how best to use Zemanta, check out this video, browse through our tutorials, read about our selection as one of ReadWriteWeb's "Top 10 Semantic Web products" last year, or just get started and play around with it. We would love to hear your feedback or suggestions.
Happy blogging!( Whatever the reasons are, Firefox and my system often have problems with running simultaneous applications. Actually, that's a known condition of Firefox that you are assumed to know how to work around by selectively disabling and re-enabling apps that conflict. Lastpass may be handy...but not when posting. I find it prudent to save my post, then enable Zemanta as an edit. Often it just freezes, which is one reason some posts don't have added content. Lastpass - a password application - has its own control on the upper right. Zemanta is accessed in the Tools menu with a 'check' for active, blank when not.And a reminder : you don't have to contend with toolbars eating screen space if you're not using the tools on them. Select under View - unless you decide to kill it altogether. )
