@Erodejimmy, try using copyscape: http://www.copyscape.com and type in your blog’s URL there — you’ll find out if anyone ever made copies of your posts.

Very good Atanu. The copier Blog is inactive now. But how have you got it, by casual reading or by some technical means to check duplicate content from your writings.

Its like the time when someone copied an article off an encyclopedia and copied the cross-reference text too

As Prateeksha said though, its more likely that this person is just compiling blog entries without due credit to the authors.

I checked dkshamli ’s other posts. Those also are direct lift-offs from the web. I think (s)he is trying to compile all the good reads (s)he came across – with, of course, the bad habit of not acknowledging the original authors. (S)He should be told, I think, what are the right pratices in reproducing works which are not hers/his.
