Have you ever experienced those annoying blog spammers and content scrapers? These are basically sites that get the contents off an RSS feed and re-publish it as their own. One way of battling these is by inserting a short signature on each post that your RSS feed publishes, possibly including a short note and link to your own site. This way, readers know that a blog post is originally yours and not authored originally on another blog.
Sig2feed lets you do just that. You simply install the plugin, and input the necessary text (or links, if necessary) and it will automatically add these after each post in your feed.
Of course, this can also be used for other, more mundane reasons, like when you prefer to have a short signature on each item you publish in your feed.
