FairShare helps you track scrapers publishing your content.

SEOmoz announced they retooled their backlink anchor text analysis tool using their Linkscape data, which they also released an API for.

Wolfram Alpha is to launch in May as an answer engine. I predict that launch strategy will create branding issues (like not being able to outsource the blame for their poor algorithms onto spammers - like Google does) but if the tool is decent it might be a great tool to use when researching content generation ideas. The new CashKeywords toolbar also looks quite useful for researching content ideas.
