Sometimes Imitation Is NOT The Sincerest Form Of Flattery

While I'm flattered when people, blogs or news organizations sometimes link to or quote my posts here at TransGriot, every now and then because of the increasing traffic and high profile this award winning site has garnered, I have to be on guard for people copying entire posts that I've worked hard to create and then trying to pass them off as their own work. 

Today I discovered this site was ripping off entire blogposts I have written verbatim, and to make it worse, set up a Blogspot URL to piggyback on my award winning brand on top of it.  .

Now y'all know I'm extremely pissed about that and I will be taking the necessary steps to protect my blog and the hard work I put into it.   

2.5 Million Hits!

The milestones just keep on coming here at TransGriot.   As of 4:06 PM CDT today, according to the counter I installed on Martin Luther King Jr, Day on January 17, 2007  I've reached the 2.5 million hit mark!  .

Hmm, it's taking me less time to reach these milestones these days.  Seems like I just composed a post about passing the 2 million hit mark back in January and rocketing past the 1.5 million hit milestone back in August 2010.

As much as passing these growth milestones gives me a great sense of personal satisfaction in knowing that the hard work I put into this blog is appreciated, I'm still extremely cognizant of the fact that I can't do it without you loyal TransGriot readers who surf by here on a regular basis.

I can't thank you enough for spending your valuable web surfing time reading what I write about here on this blog.   Know I deeply appreciate that and appreciate the donations in the TransGriot Tip Jar as well, no matter what the amount unless they come from a certain Kentucky based blackface drag queen.

Thank you!    Now on to the 3 million hit mark.
