Thanks for writing a post about Zemanta. To answer your question and to clarify for your readers…

Zemanta does a contextual analysis of what you’re writing – as you write it. So the results we present to you are not search results in the same sense as what you’d expect on a search engine (e.g. Google). Our “search” window is more like a “refinement” feature. That’s why the previous results are still there – we “think” each query is part of the same blog post, and in aggregate relate to your current blog post topic.

There’s nothing wrong with beginning your writing experience with a “search”. But you might also find it interesting to just start writing and let Zemanta delver results to you automatically after you’ve written a short paragraph. You might be surprised to find that you don’t need to search at all.

Thanks again and happy blogging,

Jim
