I wrote an article on ReveNews about Joel Comm's 500Words.com site. I think Joel came up with an interesting concept and he did a great job of monetizing it and then farming out the code for a fee so others could duplicate the effort.

But one Good idea does lead to the knockoffs, and this little press release caught my eye today as the mother of all knockoffs. I especially like the headline "World's Biggest Internet Discovery Since the Internet Itself". Oh Brother... Top500Wordz.com isn't anything special... new or any kind of major discovery, it's just another implementation of Joel's code, and I hope Joel made some bucks off of it...
