Just came across a spun article of mine over on Squidoo. First time this has happed to me and I'm pretty annoyed. I've tried getting in contact with Squidoo to let them know that it is spun. But is there anything else I should do about it?

I just checked the ranking of my one and only masterpiece over there.
Drum roll......

In doing my research to update it, I found another post that is obviously spun from my article, but with slight changes in wording to mask the plagiarism. The spun post has a slightly altered...
