Researching and writing content for your blog can be a time-consuming process. Websites like Article Geek offer copyright-free articles on hundreds of topics for you to use, free of charge. These articles are written by both experts and hobbyists, for their amusement, exposure, practice, or to get links back to their own websites.
Google recently overhauled their famous "algorithm" to combat the spread of "content farms" that relied solely on these copyright-free articles and didn't provide any value-added service for visitors to their websites. For this reason, as well as other aspects of the algorithm that look for duplicate content, you'll want to use these articles sparingly, and try to create your own material as much as possible.
When you do use free articles, however, try to mix up the source, and select those that are lengthier and have more keywords related to your blog's overall theme.
A few other websites that offer free content are:
Article City
Free Article HQ
Article Base
