A Search Engine for Detecting Sites Using Your Content

(Via ResearchBuzz) Copyscape is a search engine that uses the Google API to do a pattern-match on web sites to determine if is being, ahem, repurposed.

It works simply; enter in the page you want to check on and Copyscape returns pages which are using that content. ... Results include title, description, and URL, but when you click on the title you won't go immediately to the Web page. Instead you'll go to a cached copy which shows the copied parts in colored blocks.
