HunWen Westman (a friend of mine at Kimley-Horn) just alerted me to a blog post on the Transportation Gazette (the blog of Trans-Plan Inc)that reminded her of one of my posts. Look for yourself –

They didn't even bother to update my links! I know I'm supposed to be flattered by being copied, but I'm actually pretty pissed off. I dug for 30 more seconds and found another copy –

I don't want to keep digging because I don't want to figure out they built their whole blog by stealing from me. I'll let you decide if you should follow Shadi Hagag at Trans-Plan. I hope you'll continue to come to MikeOnTraffic to read the original.
Content scraping at it’s worst. Virtually every entry is directly plagiarized.
That’s sad. Very unprofessional.
On a side note, I’m thinking of just downloading your blog, putting my picture and name on it (hey the find/replace function is great for that) and adding to my web page as my own. That’s okay right?
Seriously though, I have really enjoyed some of your articles and spreadsheets you have provided on your blog. Keep up the great work.
