I like to share the title or a little summary of your article with my staff, is that all right?
Yes, as long as youre not republishing the whole thing and or passing it off as your own. If you want someone to check out the whole blog site post, give them the link to it..

The majority of the websites that are stealing my work nowadays are doing so through automated ways. Its relatively easy to compose a script that scrapes all of the material from an RSS feed and imports it into a different website. Truncating or stopping my RSS feed stops a few of the thieves, however most have actually moved onto utilizing scripts that scrape straight from the website instead of from the RSS feed. Thats a little harder to stop so my option is to file DMCA takedown notices with Google to get them to remove the angering content from their results pages. Additionally, I then submit DMCA takedown notices with the websites hosting services..
Filing DMCA takedown notifications is time-consuming and even when filed correctly some hosting business still require even more evidence of original work and ownership. Being able to say, “hey, thats my image of myself wearing my favorite flannel t-shirt” is a lot much easier and faster than composing an explanation of the creativity of my blog site post.
