Really? Because out of the first 4 articles on your “site”, I see at
least three that are lifted word-for-word from other people’s blogs
without any attribution:

http://rubyonrailsprogrammer.org/?p=528 is a copy of
http://www.igvita.com/2007/03/22/agile-rss-aggregator-in-ruby/

http://rubyonrailsprogrammer.org/?p=506 is a copy of
http://sonjayatandon.com/05-2006/how-to-build-a-secured-web-application-with-ruby-on-rails/

http://rubyonrailsprogrammer.org/?p=504 is a copy of
http://dev.nozav.org/rails_ajax_table.html

And we’re not even going to get into how bogus hosting copies of
Railscasts (again, without any attribution or even a link back to the
site) is…

The Rails logo is copyright too… and they don’t very much like
people using it for their own purposes.
