Aggravation of a Blogger
I enjoy blogging quite a bit. Blogging lets me pass on some of the knowledge I've accrued over the past years as well as allows me to get feedback on my ideas from readers. I've probably learned more in the last four months of blogging than I have on my own in quite a while. To all of my readers, I'm quite thankful.
There's really only one aspect of blogging that burns me to no end and that's when other bloggers copy my blog posts, word for word. No citations or requests for permission--simply word for word copying. Over the last months, I've had to ask dozens of other bloggers to remove MY posts from THEIR blog. Use my code, use my theories, but don't take articles that I've worked hard on; have some integrity!
The latest blog to steal my content is at:

Hopefully I'll have better luck in the new year. Happy holidays to all of you!

![Conquering Impostor Syndrome]()
Two years ago I documented my struggles with Imposter Syndrome and the response was immense. I received messages of support and commiseration from new web developers, veteran engineers, and even persons of all experience levels in other professions. I've even caught myself reading the post...
![Create a Dojo-Powered WordPress Website View]()
Yesterday I showed you WordPress' awesome JSON plugin named JSON API. Now that I can get my blog posts in JSON format, it's time to create an awesome AJAX'ed web app with that data. I've chosen to use the power of Dojo and Dijit to...
![Sexy Link Transformations with CSS]()
I was recently visiting MooTools Developer Christoph Pojer's website and noticed a sexy link hover effect: when you hover the link, the the link animates and tilts to the left or the right. To enhance the effect, the background color of the link is...

>>To all of my readers, I’m quite thankful.
you are very welcome :)
I wrote in his comments and asked to him remove it…
Keep up the good work.
Thank you for that Mark. I commented a few days back to do so and the person still hasn’t removed my article. I’m not too upset about it — just frustrated.
Hopefully better luck in the new year!
