Widget Baiting
Widget Baiting is sort of a free content generator. Here is a quote from their site:
Define: widgetbaiting
Widget Baiting is to construct content with the aim of luring search engine spiders to your widget pages, on your widget site enabling a quality of content to be indexed that if written manually would not deliver a meaningful return on investment.
Widget baiting is commonly used by search engine spammers in conjunction with cloaking, although has been known to reduce the time in constructing quality content for real people to read as well.
What it does is take an article you provide (or any kind of text of course) and “evolve” it. By “evolving” I mean, rewriting it to produce a new unique article for you to use. You can choose how many articles you want to auto create (up to 99) and the word count for the created articles.
It also has the option for two algorithms, one is “random” and the other is “markov chains”. You also choose the “age” of the new articles, the higher the “age” the less they resemble the original article. After your new articles are generated, Widget Baiting e-mails them to you in a zip.
Maybe you want to generate a couple hundred articles, slap them on a throw-away domain and see how they rank. If you do, don’t forget to post a comment here.

I think widgetbaiting is great. I have not had much success with it yet but I love the way it works.
