i spent time writing a rss feed aggregator and have come to find out it completely has no impact on seo. infact it could be damaging my website. i cant get rid of it as its a commonly used resource. So was wondering is there any hardcore php text spinner(synonimizer) out there. that way i could server crawlers/spiders with spun text. is this ethical? or would it cause more damage? please i need feedback.

I agree with andrewk – aggregating content from other websites won’t directly benefit your own with regard to how search engines rank you.
As the feeds are an important part of your website I’d suggest supplementing them with original content, either written by yourself or outsourced. Freelance writers are easy to come by for a good stack of original content, and will help contribute towards your PR.
Alternatively, block the spiders from accessing the pages/areas which include aggregated feeds, so that search engines only crawl your original content.
