Took a look down a westbound road,
Right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two-wheeler,
I was tired of my own voice....

We rolled across the high plains

Deep into the mountains

Felt so good to me

Finally feelin' free

Sorry everyone, there's been a delay because we found not one, but two plagiarized posts. Contests bring out the best in most, and the worst in a few. Frown I don't see the winners being announced before Tuesday.

In the meantime though, could you all update your profile with your address (India only) and T-shirt size?  Smile

Now, plagiarism is a fairly serious thing to encounter, Renie... it happens quite so often on the social networks. Lifting FB updates, sending other's tweets as your own, and pretending that a picture was clicked by you are just some of the things I see a lot of people doing without any qualms. Copying entire blog posts is taking it to a higher level. Deal with it severly!

Well said Arvind. It seriously pisses off when you have put in all the hardwork and someone sitting somewhere passes it as his/her own and there is no dearth of such people all around.

:) We are talking plagirism on personal blogs. I have seen plagiarism in corporate websites too. Way back in 2005-2006, we (my Boss and me) prepared a document highlighting our consulting service offering. 

Years later, I found the same text word-by-word on a competing company's website !!  

Getting inspired is one thing. Plagiarism is another. People often end up doing a Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V without any application of thought.

Plagiarism? Well simply, barred those entries and move on!

I have found one entire blog that has copied me completely from pen name to my "ABOUT ME" AND ALL THAT...what to do? :( Cry

I felt bad and wrote to google but no avail!

Hemantkumar Jain

Hey Ekta ... thats taking plagirism to the level of Identity Theft. 

Posing someone else's work as your own - Plagiarism ||| Posing someonse else altogether - Identity Theft. 

Hope they have restricted to only the blog and not other spheres of your life. 

Ekta Khetan

Hemant,

I agree with you...someone just use my pen name, uses my "about me" and freely blogging on the net. I hope they do not do otherwise else it will be very unfair. 

The lady could have just asked me to give her some ideas rather than stealing my whole stuff :( Cry

Think you should make the name of plagiarists known here, Renie. So we can be more vigilant next time.

Congratulations, Ranjith on moving from consolation winner to main prize winner. This years seems to have begun on  a cracker for you.

Not too bad for me either.  After breaking my Indi jinx at Vodafone, I have added one more to my tally - this time in the main medals section. Thanks Castrol and Indi-blogger. Never imagined my fantasy spoof would actually win. 

Congrats to Princess for her first win. Congrats to Bhavana, Mr. Passey, Frigid Insanity and others. Though most prizes are biking gear, funnily quite a few non bikers seem to figure in the winners list.

Congrats all winners!!! The Fool, I am so happy for you! Your spoof worked! Congrats everybody else! All of us won at least a T-Shirt!

As usual I opened my mail and found a congratulatory message. I opened it thinking it to be the one related to the T Shirts (2 of them Wink ). But, on reading the mail, I was surprised to see that it was something more than the T Shirt. And an even bigger surprise after landing on the contest page.... I'm not just a winner but the winner of the first prize. Cool

Thanks to IndiBlogger and an even bigger thanks to the judges! Wink

Actually, the number of pageviews contributed by me to this contest page ( cehcking for results ) was less than other contests for the simple reason that I wasn't interested in the prizes... none of which are useful to me atleast for now.... but destiny had different thoughts....

One one side I'm very happy on enetring into the elite group of contest winnersSmile and on the other hand, a bit sad for not winning things like i pads..... What am I going to do with my prize when I don't know how to ride a bike.... Undecided But still, happiness seems to be dominating... Laughing

Thanks once again to IndiBlogger, the judges and all those who have read my post.

Waiting for an i pad, a laptop or other bigger prizes.... Sealed

Same thoughts here, Ranjith. Even I don't know to ride a bike. i-pads and other cool stuff would have been nice. But not cribbing about bean bags and biking gear. I am happy I am winning stuff. Useful things I will buy myself.
