Design Rip Off

Rip Off

Through various sites I read daily it’s come to my attention that Falkner Winery ripped off Joyent and Cork’d, two very nicely designed websites.

Greg Storey wrote a (very, very good) post about it, Hivelogic wrote about the wine bottle rip off and also has a direct comparison on Flickr. Joyent have replied but do not appear to be taking it as hard as Greg.

Some people are saying they don’t think it’s a rip off at all and it’s a whole lot of fuss about nothing. I think it’s blatant plagarism.
