      I have a hotel directory. I am thinking of adding a feed that takes reviews of hotels from Tripadvisor and puts them on my site. I know that Google are cracking down on duplicate content with the Panda update. Would these reviews be seen as duplicate content and could it harm my site if I do this?

        Yes, that would be seen as duplicate content, since it is already published on other site(s).

          And it would also violate a couple of the terms of use of TripAdvisor, as they specifically prohibit copying and scraping of their content. You're likely to encounter the same problems with duplicate content and copyright in other similar sites, too.
