1. Re-Purposed Article/Story From Our Original Content Library - We have original stories/articles that we have writers/contributors use to create new articles with different perspectives. Since we have the original, we could set up a system that compares the original article to the newly re-written article. If the articles are not sufficiently different they could not be published. This would be an automatic detection and articles that don't meet the minimum criteria would be rejected.
2. New Article/Story - When we provide the topic but not the article, we rely on the writer/contributor to research the article online. A solution that checks the writer/contributor's work against the internet to see if there are % matches online somewhere. If this meets a % threshold of originality, then the article could be published, since it is deemed to be an original article by that writer/contributor. If it does not meet a % threshold , then the article would be reject and the writer/contributor could be flagged.
Here are some commercial solutions I've found that charge per article various rates to basically search google/yahoo for similar content.

Notice that the panes move at the right on rollover. But if you click any of the panes, text appears at the left. All well and good. Except no one will know to click.
I would like to make the text appear at the left (or on the bottom in the case of the second link ) on rollover, not on click. This is not as easy as it appears, but someone who is good with AS 3.0 can do this.
In addition, it appears I cant simply set button states in AS 3.0 to do an OnClick GetUrl mailto: event. They've made it more complicated. I need to have the email address in those clickable panes (theres maybe 2 or three) actually work as a mailto: event.
