Zemanta is a useful service that makes it easy for bloggers to find images, tags and blog posts that are possibly related to your own content.

For instance, if you are writing an article on "Olympic Games", Zemanta will pull relevant sports pictures and articles from the web that you can easily embed in your own story.
Now Zemanta has long been available inside the browser but now you can use this on the desktop with Windows Live Writer as well,
Zemanta for Live Writer comes as a plugin that integrates very nicely with your Live Writer blogging client and offers suggestions based on the title and body of your blog post that you haven’t published yet (see screenshot).
The good part is that all images suggested by Zemanta are from sources like Wikimedia Commons, Flickr, etc. and are often under Creative Commons license so you can safely embed them in your posts.
Microsoft Office users may also find Zemanta useful because you can pull images and relevant links for Word Documents or PowerPoint Presentations via Live Writer.

Note that zemanta inserts div tags at the top and bottom of your post.These div tags contain linkbacks. As per their terms and conditions, you are not supposed to alter their code.
So it is not advisable to use it unless you are ok in giving linkbacks from every post of yours, where you have used a zemanta image.

Rajesh, it is clearly stated in the Zemanta FAQ that you as an author can remove the Reblog button/Zemified icon at the bottom of the post at your own will.
Please do not give out misinformation :)

I’m running WLW from my U3 usb stick. Does Zemanta work from this?
Written by Edward de Leau on 08.15.08
Zemanta should have an option in its preferences to remove the Reblog button/Zemified icon.

@edward: it should, but maybe you’ll have to manually put the DLL in proper directory on USB stick
@Snehasis: it does, you can choose hidden pixy and nothing is displayed in your post.

@Rajesh: Zemanta cannot technically stop you, but you have to take care to comply with their respective licenses.
