Once in a while while browsing the net you stumble upon a webapp/plugin for your browser that turns out to be largly helpful. Yesterday was one such day… I happened to use the Zemanta Plugin for firefox yesterday, and was simply blown over by the ease of use and the features it offered.

Zemanta is a plugin that basically puts this sidebar next to the textbox where you are writing your blog post(wordpress/livejournal/drupal, the works). It pulls out keywords and provides you the ability to insert flickr photos relevant to your post and even link the keywords to their Wikipedia, IMDB and other blog posts.

Considering so many of you write movie reviews and post about current events, this plugin is a god send. Do give it a try chances are you will like it :)
