Zemantra
This is a test entry for the new Firefox plug in Zemantra.
Zemantra is a 'suggestion' mechanism which provides suggestions for useful links and images as you type. This seems like a neat idea and so I wanted to try it out.
There are two negative caveats I have found. First, you need to type three hundred words in your entry before it starts to make suggestions, so I am kind or rambling to see what happens. Actually, there is a button to click which will force it to update earlier - interesting.
The second negative caveat is that it has to be used via the web browser. i.e. the LJ post page. So, this means no SE Magic. Probably worth suggesting to the SE Magic developers that they integrate the Zemntra technology into SE Magic.
Among the kewl aspects of Zemantra is its compatible with a lot of blogging programs, not just LiveJournal. So, if you use Blogger or Wordpad, you can make use of Zemantra.
Another neat feature is that when you go to the Post page, Zemantara pulls random pictures from Flickr that you can use as inspiration.
Hmmm... clicked update now and it says its retrieving updates but nope, nothing is coming up. Which is kind of disappointing. So this may be a failed experiment.
Maybe I just haven't found anything worth making suggestions about. Anyway, not much doing... kind of taking a break from the insanity of work and fooling around, as I am sure you can tell.
Anway, this is somewhat disappointing... oh well I am going to let it percolate and see what it comes up with.
Ah, its a reported problem. Added a 'me too' and Im going to follow the thread and see what happens.
