Chitika – A favourite CPC product ad platform of many bloggers has just introduced “linx”, a new system similar to Amazon’s Context Links that will automatically identify key products/keywords mentioned in the content on a website or blog and link those keywords to product comparison listings from the chitika network (which, if I remember correctly, runs on top of the shopping.com API)

As can be seen in the image, chitika’s javascript code will automatically recognize product names and keywords from a blog’s content and double-underline them, if a user hovers their mouse cursor over any of these links, they see the chitika widget pop up with links – monetized for the blogger – to products on various online stores via chitika’s network.
This new system is currently in closed beta and available only to select chitika publishers by invitation.
