For those blog owners who want to make sure the content you write never gets claimed as someone else’s work (um everyone?), it’s time to get set up with Google Authorship.

Excellent points! After reading your post I have setup G+ authorship for my blog :)

Awesome point. Though the author feature is usually seen as more of a marketing thing, it's true that it's a great way to identify content as yours. Although, another thing to remember is that search engines have a pretty good idea what content was published first and will rank accordingly (sometimes.) This is not necessarily the case if a newer version containing some older content is published later, but it is definitely enough to catch actual scraping--which is also probably also the best argument not to engage in this behavior as a "shortcut" to creating your own content.
