It also has a very familiar design (compare to Learning jQuery).
There are similarities.

Maybe it’s just because I run the other site, but I find the similarities striking. Not that I’m particularly bothered by them; I’m more amused than annoyed. In any case, I’ll stop discussing it now. Don’t want to appear trollish (hope I haven’t already).
On a side note, I have to disable JavaScript in order to successfully post a comment on your blog. The JavaScript form validation in /wp-content/plugins/wp-comment-spam-stopper/valforms.js is trying to validate
document.getElementById("email"). Since you have two instances of that ID on the page, it’s trying (unsuccessfully) to validate against the first one, which is a link inside<div class="sociable">. Looks like you might need to modify the output of your “sociable” plugin.@ Karl
Karl you are correct. This is far too similar.
I can assure you I am not in the business of ripping off other people’s designs. I hadn’t actually seen LJQ for a while. The inspiration in my head was (amongst others):
http://www.designingthenews.com/ – check out his work section
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/utils/load_image.php?filename=fonts/613/chunk_showing.jpg
I only had a morning to knock up this design last Friday. However, I’m not happy to leave it as it is so I’ll be redesigning it this Friday. Apologies for any inconvenience.

David,
Thanks for the gracious reply. I harbor no ill feelings about it at all. In fact, I feel a bit like a schmuck for even mentioning it here. Should have just sent you a friendly email instead. If you want to chat some more, email me: my first name at learningjquery.com.
Jeffrey, please forgive me for posting another comment, even though I said I’d stop. :) Wanted to at least reply to David.
If anyone’s interested we’ve just run some tests on the seven A-Grade browsers using findmebyip.com.
Results can be found at:

@David–excellent findings. If you’d like to further test HTML5 form support, I’ve created some more detailed tests here:

Gerçekten Güzel Bir Makale olmuş Tebrik Etmek lazım
Thanks…
@Mike T
Thanks for your feedback Mike. We’ve currently adding input test support to findmebyip.com along with some other upgrades.
I’ll post to Twitter (@get_dave) when the improved version goes live.
