Semiologic Terms2Post - Related Entries Plugin
I do not use any related entries plugin here at Blog Scrutiny because I don’t really have enough posts for it to add any value to the blog. But, on my other blog CyberSurge, I do use one called Semiologic Terms2Post.
Example:
The Terms2Post plugin is bundled with a few other plugins that I would like to mention, Related Entries for Feeds, Related Searches, and Related Tags. I only use the related I do not use any of the plugins bundled with it but I figured I would mention them anyway.
The plugin is extremely simple to install, just like every other plugin in you throw it in to your plugins folder with an ftp client and then you activate it. After that is done you just add some code into your wordrpress theme files, simple as that. The plugin uses Yahoo’s term extraction web service to find the related entries on your blog which means if it doesn’t work right then you have too much traffic, your server’s IP is beating its 5,000 calls per 24h limit to Yahoo’s web services.
Alright now I’m going to compare it to other related entries plugins, oh, wait, I can’t because none of the other plugins seem to work AT ALL. I have never been able to get another related entries plugin to work on the blog. To be brutally honest it is completely ridiculous that a plugin doesn’t work and I can’t seem to find any reason for it not to.
Anyway I suggest trying it out if you can’t get the others working, if for some strange reason you weren’t waving the rubber chicken around correctly while trying to install this one and it doesn’t work you can head over to TechZilo where Sumesh has done a great roundup of alternatives.

Thanks for the link, and the review. I have linked up.

Btw, you might want to change the links below - remove link to your homepage as well as Brian’s….its too expensive in terms of pagerank to give out 3 links on each page. And make sure to no-follow FeedBurner/Technorati/social sites like Digg and delicious.
