marco:Note Flag is a complete ripoff of my recent launch, Instapaper, but with Google ads plastered all over it. The depth of the copy is, frankly, impressive: The entire layout and all Javascript. All of the core bookmarking functionality. This wasn’t just a layout clone — he actually wrote the back-end, too. The favicon and iPhone shortcut icon. Most of my FAQ — he even edited the “I” link to point to himself. Don’t miss the blog. I didn’t want to link to this and give him any traffic, but I just had to share. If you want to look at it, you should probably hurry up before he’s banned from AdSense for life (losing all unpaid earnings) and ThePlanet terminates his hosting. Ripping me off is generally not recommended. :) maybe s/he was following your useful post on the subject
