I write topics in one blog and would like them to appear in other places, automatically.  Is there way to do this?  For example, if I write something here, would like it to appear in my blog associated with my real estate website, my MySpace blog, an EBlog, etc..  Am I asking for way to much?  Is this possible?

I do not know of such a programm, but you can write your blog in word, save it and  post it on other sites. It is not a good idea to copy form one blog website for the other because it might raise  phishing red flag. Some of the websites allow you to clear the word format.

Is that really true?  I always hear about how bad it is to have duplicate content but come on...Inman news feeds are on thousands of web sites.  Point 2 listings are fed across all Point2 member sites (that's duplicate) and many many large national blogs are posting the same topics over and over again and they still rank really high.

I understand the theory behind this concept but in reality I don't think it holds up in situations such as this.  Blog feeds are blog feeds and they are spread across the internet like lightening speed.  

I would love to have my posts about the real estate industry automatically post to multiple blogs as it just means more exposure for me!  I don't think Google's phishing issues should dictate everything we do.  If the content is relevant use it!

Generally speaking, when a site draws on your blog feed, they link back to your full article and display only an excerpt.  If we implement cross-posting, we must consider whether to re-post the full article.  What is your opinion?

Interesting subject.  I would love to know if there is a way to cross blog without getting penalized for duplicate content.  It's a tricky subject.
