My blog is relatively new, but has started getting attention from Google. I am nervous about messing that up and want to minimize the ill effects as much as possible.
I added a noindex, nofollow meta tag to my blog. This will eventually remove the blog/cache from Google's index and prevent you from getting that duplicate content penalty. The instructions for the redirect and everything were on this site...
