Since there are a lot of books out there we don't match everything that
reminds of a book as then all the links would be to "random" books. To
get a specific book recommendation you have to type the name of the
author and title as it appears in Amazon. We realize that's not optimal
and we're working on a better interface for this, for now that's the
limitation of the system.

Regarding the specific book, can you send the name to
support@zemanta.com and we'll check what's going on. If you can send the
text that's appearing in, it would be great :)

So far I haven't been able to get the Amazon recommendations to show up. Right now I'm working on a post about Books on the Rules of Golf for NoBogies.com and I know there are tons of books on that subject at Amazon but I don't see any of them suggested by Zemanta.

The specific book I really want to link to is currently showing up as pre-order only in the U.S. Should it show up now or only after it is really available for sale? There are dozens of other books I could link in as well but none are offered.

Do you have any tips for me?

I discovered zemantha from a blogger that post something about the Reblog thing and I was attracted with it and gave it a try after installing zemantha on my blog it works really nice, the "reblog" thing is really cool.. and I'm starting to love it.
