One Of My Sites Got Ripped Off

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But when that imitation goes as far as copying the complete content of one of my websites, including my email address and even using my name in the 'posted by Gerard' line, it's not flattery. It's a rip-off.

That's exactly what happened with my site The Generator Blog. The Generator Blog is a very well visited site (2,500 unique daily visitors on average).

Thanks to one of my readers my attention was drawn to a site called The Generator Kid. The site is maintained by someone called Karthik from India. Karthik copied the complete content of my site and only changed the template.

I can't contact Karthik directly since, like I said, he/she uses my email address. The comments system was als copied but doesn't work. I already contacted Google Blogger about this and they asked me to send them a written complaint.
