Yep. It's extremely common. Folks like Jeff Zeldman and Lance Arthur are
always getting ripped off, but I've started seeing more and more small-time
goofball Web designers rip off corporate sites as well. It's so widespread
that it's difficult to find a good list of all the ripoffs. I know Derek
Powazek was going to launch a site that would shame them into submission,
but I don't think he ever did. Cam Barrett was keeping track of them, too,
for a while, but it's really so common (and so irritating, as Joe no doubt
knows by now) that he gave up in disgust.
