On: A brazen ripoff of Twitvid

[abl]

I doubt it took them just a few days, considering they have an API, flash plugins, design elements, etc..

Yeah, maybe they have had it built for months now and were just as mad at twidvid.io for copying their idea as the twidvid.io people are now that twitvid.com copied them...

They both copied twitpic didn't they?

I can't upmod this comment enough. Regardless of whether they got some inspiration from twitvid.io they both copied the idea from somewhere else. It's not like twitvid isn't super-obvious as a name considering twitpics success.

Also, how many ways could a service like this be built? It's obvious what features you need, what look you are going for etc.

thanks trapper, that's a nice thing to say.

You said it the best. It is clear that the "clone" had been around for a long time already

[dbreunig → pj]

It's a inevitable service built on top of another service. It's like saying CBS copied NBC.

Use this as motivation to make yours better.
