I've dropped them a note. Maybe Amy Klemer used the same Virtual Assistant as Alex Boorman at Relik Creative? Somehow though, my gut tells me we'll just never know. Thanks Eddi.

I’d done a write-up of a conference I had been to. Now either this other person had <em>exactly</em> the same experience – word for word – or they had simply copied my article, changed a couple of names, and pasted it in to their blog. Pretty sure it was the latter. Anyway, made a comment on the offending article and it was duly removed from their web site.It‘s hard to imagine that people believe they can get away with wholesale copying – it’s so easy to find out. However, they do say that imitation is a form of flattery. However imitation ≠ plagiarism. I had a very similar thing happen to me. I’d done a write-up of a conference I had been to.
