Blogger On Trial, For Murder

From TechCrunch: Automatic Content for Blogs.. Killer! (literally)

Zemanta, a new company out of the tech hotspot Slovenia, introduces a killer new Wordpress plugin that automatically adds crappy links and crappy tags to your crappy posts, by examining the content of said post.

According to Arrington, “something a lot of bloggers would kill for no doubt”.

Really Michael? Really?! Here’s a direct challenge. FIND ONE. Seriously. Find ONE blogger who wants links and tags introduced to their content without them having control over it. Find me one blogger that would kill for this… or, how about just one blogger that may even kind of like this. How about one blogger that doesn’t think this is a horrible idea? Bonus points awarded if this blogger is from Slovenia!

Good luck, I’ll be waiting… not.

Hy from Zemanta.

Actually we leave blogger at the wheel! We just suggest stuff and blogger has to click on every single tag, link, image or related news he wants to add.

Try it out … We try to be the good guys.
