Citation finder

Copyscape finds pages that repeat phrases you used on your page. It bills itself first as a way of tracking down the nogoodniks who are plagiarising your valuable content, but the page also mentions its non-violent egosurfing capabilities. [Thanks to Dave Rogers for pointing this out. He found it in Ian Poynter's newsletter.]

Personally I like using GoogleAlert.com with a keyphrase I know exists in the article (same as copyscape) and then getting automated notifications when the results for that search change. I guess its the same thing as copyscape but I've never used copyscape and I know Googlealert is free and even better than the service Google offers.
