I was initially providing excerpted feeds only. However I switched over to full feed format.

Recently I noticed several aggregator sites cropping up which uses my feed content in full and serves its own advertisements, in some cases not even attributing it properly! That is not fair.

In the process I am becoming more and more proficient in PHP. All of this was accomplished with a plugin. If you are interested express so in comments.
At least 100 comments or more will trigger me to wrap it up with documentation for you all :)
