true, but his site has essentially no original content. he is just rehashing what others have already created. letsrun has some original content. flotrack has almost all original content. trackshark presents collegiate results in an organized manner that no other site can match. if he expects to compete with sites like these he will need to develop a niche other than posting linking to youtube videos. it's a start, but it won't carry the site.
true, but his tag cloud looks exremely similar to the one found on flotrack. see for yourself.
very true. i'm glad that you were able to discuss this with the dude and iron things out.
in retrospect, maybe i was being a little hard on the site but i have a short fuse when it comes to plagiarism. assuming the name gets changed and the site develops some uniqueness it could become a big player on this little corner of the internet runners frequent. best of luck.
