This blog is now “OpenCalais-enabled”.  They have a Wordpress plugin called Tagaroo which reads your Wordpress blog entry as you type it, and automatically suggests tags for it.  It also pulls down Flickr images based on these tags so they can be included with the entry.  More in-depth review of these tools after the presentation!
