blog fun

While checking stats on, what, Thursday, I noticed a lot of hits for a pretty precise phrase out of that Ultraman manga post I made a while back at Let's Anime. I did a Google search on it and found another blog had appropriated the entire blog, line for line, picture for picture, and posted it without attribution. So I fired off a DMCA notice to Google. Yesterday while checking stats I noticed some views to that Ultraman column from Mountain View CA. Hmm, I says, isn't Mountain View the home of Google? Half an hour later I get an email from Google's DMCA team, and the offending plagarist column is gone gone gone. Now that's service! The rest of the blog, which appears to be material sourced from other blogs from around the internets, is still there, but they aren't ripping ME off any more.

So bloggers, remember, the occasional vanity search is your friend!
