copycat

So someone started up a blog as bluegirlredstate at typepad. Not that I was intending to move my blog there, but still. Doesn't it seem like a little bit of a coincidence, given that prior to starting this blog I googled bluegirlredstate and got ZERO results? It just seems that stumbling on a blog name you like, whether at blogspot, typepad, or a domain, and then taking that blog name as your own on a different service is oh, incredibly lame. Just as I certainly would never dream of starting up dooce.blogspot.com or dailykos.typad.com (for example), it makes someone seem pretty uncreative when they do it with a non-famous blog.
