Here’s a great idea for anyone who posts any type of original content on their blog. 

Blog Copy is a website that will track your visitor’s use of the copy command when selecting and copying your text or pictures.

You just have to add a short piece of code to the body of your site, and Blog Copy will track the users who are taking your content via cut and paste.  It is probably not significant copyright violations you will find (although there might be some), but it is nice to know how far and wide your words are traveling.

In the past we used Google to search for such things.  And we had to type in complex search strings.  But this only caught some of our scraped content because it wasn’t all published or indexed.  Blog Copy lets you know from the start when people are borrowing.

The analytics generated, the price (FREE!), and the fact that everyone’s privacy is respected add up to a worthwhile test of this service for your blog.

The Prez himself even got a little chuckle out of this one.  Or so says Fox News.
