DISQUS

Hi from Zemanta!

Glad to read such a positive review, it really is an award for hard work we are putting in...

Let me give you some first hand answers:
* A Wordpress plugin.
- yes, but not primary priority, we first have to cover some more platforms and browsers from the extensions side. so we are thinking about it but not so soon.

* Gallery Scroll for more pictures
- yes, this is probably most requested feature right now, we hope to bring it about in quite a short time. Hope you can wait a month or so.

* Internal links - give me a section of related links that are only from my site
- Yes, we know users want this, and are looking into it

* OPTIONS! Give me options!
- definitely, in next bigger iteration! You will have basic options, and we will expand from there.


Hope I've answered all of your questions.

We simply stopped adding new features at some point in time and decided to put it out and then hear from users what they want. Hopefully soon we will have some improvements in right directions!


If you have any additional ideas or comments about how Zemanta could be more useful please mail us or use http://getsatisfaction.com/zemanta to leave us feedback so we can discuss it!

(it's really hard to track all the reviews in blogosphere for us, so we would really appreciate more direct methods of giving us feedback)

Hi,

thanks for a review. I'd just like to quickly answer your wishlist:

- there will be wordpress plugin, but because of quick development and ease of distribution we decided to go with Firefox Extension. Our initial testing showed that people don't upgrade Wordpress or their plugins and we wanted to avoid having users stuck in alpha version. Expect also WP plugin in upcoming iterations.

- Better image handling is on the way as are smarter image suggestions. Options too are on the way :)

About the Zemified button, feel free to remove it inside your editior while you write if you feel that using us in that specific post did not add enough added value to deserve our button.

Yeah I agree.. I had the same problems as you until i switched to zemanta... there are still a few little twaeks i would like to see in future releases but overall its a very sturdy alternative and is much better supported.. nice review by the way, very well written ;)

Thanks, I've switched to the Zemanta Wordpress Plug-in and love all the new
features that have been added since I posted this. My interactions with the
development team have been wonderful and while I can't say Zemanta has made
me a better blogger, I can say without doubt that it has made this a better
blog.
