OK, this is annoying. Someone is copying my blog at crazyfactor.com. That’s annoying enough. But his tools is pinging back blogs I link to. Look at Shelley Powers’ blog’s comments (I’ll bet that Shelley removes the double trackback soon, but it was there at 7:15 p.m.) My post is linked there twice. Once from me. Once from the annoying jerk at crazyfactor.

It’s said that imitation is the purest form of flattery, but that’s pretty lame. Enjoying your Montana coverage.

As much as you (and I and a lot of other people) hate them, perhaps this could be a good reason to go to partial text feeds. Although I suppose it’s better in the long run to get to the bottom of this.
Some careful snooping around points to an Elliot Back, student at Cornell, discovered by following the link in the by-lines of each post (“Original post by Robert Scoble and software by Elliott Back”)
I don’t necessarily think he means any wrongdoing since he’s got enough of an online presence linked from the site, so maybe an email (from a disposable address to be safe) could do the trick.

Most of the posts end with “Software with Elliott Back”. Ironically, the footer on elliottback.com has this text – “Dont Steal!”

When this happens to me,
I first notify Google,
then whoever else is
currently keeping track
of who shouldn’t be
returned in searches.
No doubt about it,
you should report to:
http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html
If you can find one
of the exact
problems they mention, fine.
Otherwise, your
copyright is being
abused. And at
least once that’s been
enough for them.
Then there’s:
http://www.google.com/Top/Computers/Internet/Abuse/
But this all takes so much time,
doesn’t it?
Sorry.
‘sup!

Call your attorney Scoble. I would sue if I were you. Isn’t this copyrighted material?
Sue the obsessive freak for exactly .$01 more than it costs to take him to court, just to teach him a lesson! And let the judge know that the $.01 covers the cost of your anguish.

[...] Hasta Robert Scoble se queja del scraping; sin caer en el famoso “via” que ya se está convirtiendo una forma de fusilar notas enteras, sin agregar nada y sin siquiera linkear con una keyword coherente. [...]
