These systems support some kind of plugin architecture. Maybe we can give them a plugin that will immediately monetise their content, i.e. keywords will be highlighted such that when they mouse over, they will see a wikipedia definition with adsense.... So immediately, the blogs will have another way of monetising the contents. Actually such things already happen for Google Adsense. Did a simple search "google adsense wordpress" and came out with this: http://www.quickonlinetips.com/archives/2006/11/10-best-wordpress-plugins-for-google-adsense/ Not 1 but 10 plugins for Wordpress!!!

Definitely, should have s snippet of small description from wikipedia? Actually, I believe there are some software/plugins that are already doing it. Reason is, for some website, when i click on the link, it actually goes to some commercial websites. I think it is quite hard for me to understand why people will want to do that, unless there are some commercial reasons... Hmm… sounds interesting… but cannot pure ads right?

Having a tooltip that auto integrates with advertising platforms like Google Adsense will probably improve contextual click-throughs and make everybody more money :P Is there anyone doing it yet?
