This plugin adds a section to your Settings menu in the wp-admin section. Through that section you can perform two tasks:
<ul>
<li>A scripted, one-time action updating all of the posts in your blog that do not have a featured image where the script will either try to find a suitable image to use or use one you have provided and configure it for you.</li>
<li>An ongoing, continuous monitoring for posts that do not have a featured image, using the same logic to try and find a suitable featured image and setting that for the post.</li>
</ul>
