New York City Largest city in the United States

The City of New York, usually called either New York City (NYC) or simply New York (NY), is the most populous city in the United States and thus also in the state of New York. With an estimated 2017 population of 8,622,698 distributed over a land area of about 302.6 square miles (784 km2), New York is also the most densely populated major city in the United States. Located at the southern tip of the state of New York, the city is the center of the New York metropolitan area, the largest metropolitan area in the world by urban landmass and one of the world's most populous megacities, with an estimated 20,320,876 people in its 2017 Metropolitan Statistical Area and 23,876,155 residents in its Combined Statistical Area. A global power city, New York City has been described as the cultural, financial, and media capital of the world, and exerts a significant impact upon commerce, entertainment, research, technology, education, politics, tourism, art, fashion, and sports. The city's fast pace has inspired the term New York minute. Home to the headquarters of the United Nations, New York is an important center for international diplomacy.

History

The company first launched in 2007 after being chosen as a winner of Seedcamp 2007. Zemanta's original technology focused on the semantic web, developing a content and links suggestion plugin for publishers, bloggers and other content creators.[1] It suggested links to context-relevant articles. It also suggested images found on the internet that are context relevant, as well as keywords, and tags. The suggestions are delivered to the users through a point and click interface. Zemanta launched its Content DSP, Zemanta One, in spring 2014.
