Wonderful essay by Greg Storey on the Falkner Winery design rip-off — and an interesting thread in the comments, as well.

My strategy for dealing with design rip-offs is simply to out them publicly, and let Google mete out the justice. Within a few days, Googling for “Falkner Winery” will reveal that they copied their site design from Joyent and ripped off artwork and other design elements from Cork’d.
