Read this in Bloglines, and it looks like the website has some fancy code that tags this little ditty onto copied material:
“I am a content thief. If you’re not reading this blog post through an RSS Feed you can pretty much assume I’m a slimy spam blogger and stealing content from someone else’s blog.”
Charming, when your;e trying to advertise for their position.
Hi Andrea –
It’s my feed footer. So many spam bloggers are stealing the content from this blog and via the feed and placing it on their own blogs I took measures to at least alert people that the content is stolen.
I can see your point though…

I was actually quite impressed. That’s one of the more proactive solutions I’ve seen to the problem.
