I just read a piece over on Learning Movable Type that sparked this post off.\n\nIf you publish RSS feeds then I expect someone will have used those feeds to fill their auto generated site to build ad revenue. So how can you check? I use Copyscapes offering thought there may be others out there. You can input URLs from your site into their engine and it gives you a list of sites that have plagiarised your content. If you don't use RSS feeds then you probably will be alright - unless someone really has cut and pasted you words.\n\nAs I said if you do use RSS then you are bound to have found that the ad hustlers have generated something somewhere and its annoying - why? Because search engines penalise your site if you have duplicate content. I may well stop doing an RSS feed in the next version of this site - MT3.3 has just been released so I might have a look at the designs I have been bouncing around over this year.\n(lest see if someone plagiarises this post!)",
