In the next release, we will be removing support for MySpace blogs. Using ScribeFire with MySpace has been broken for some time, and since MySpace does not have an API for accessing their blogging service, the amount of work necessary to keep ScribeFire working with MySpace is prohibitive.

When (or if) MySpace decides to support a API for their blogging platform, ScribeFire will be the first blogging tool to add support for it. Feel free to lobby for a MySpace API at the MySpace Developer Community.

Version 3.2.3 of ScribeFire has been released. The only change in this release was to remove the QuickAds management pane from ScribeFire, pending an overhaul of ScribeFire’s monetization features.

You can install this update manually at Mozilla Add-ons, or you can wait for Firefox to automatically download it for you.

Version 3.2.2 of ScribeFire has been released. We recommend that all users upgrade to this version, and you can install it at Mozilla Add-ons.

What is Zemanta?

Zemanta helps you create rich posts by recognizing your topic and suggesting useful links and pictures. – Boštjan Špetič, Zemanta

What does this mean for you? You can now instantly add relevant pictures and links to articles to your blog posts with just a few clicks.

How do I use it?

Just write your blog posts as you normally would.

Then, when you’re finished, you can add content from Zemanta.

To add an image:

1. Click on the Image button in the toolbar, and select “Find related images with Zemanta…”

   

2. The right sidebar will be replaced with images returned by Zemanta that should be relevant to your post. As you can see below, it returned pictures of Hawaii based on the Hawaii-themed blog post.

   

3. Click on an image’s thumbnail to add it to your post.

   

To add links to articles:

1. Click on the Zemanta Articles button in the editor toolbar. (It’s the one next to the YouTube button.)

   

2. The sidebar will display a list of relevant articles, and links to the top four will automatically be inserted at the end of your post.

   

3. Click on the articles in the sidebar to add or remove links to them to your post.

   

That’s all there is to it! For more information on Zemanta, check out their site, which includes an interactive demo.
