TurnitinBot/2.0
The TurnitinBot is crawling my site for hours now. It is currently checking all the photos of my last birthday to prevent plagiarism:
204.9.204.203 - - [06/Sep/2006:11:33:24 +0200] "GET /gallery/fc/photo/birthday/25.html?picture=48 HTTP/1.0" 200 2293 "-" "TurnitinBot/2.0 http://www.turnitin.com/robot/crawlerinfo.html"
This robot collects content from the Internet for the sole purpose of helping educational institutions prevent plagiarism. In particular, we compare student papers against the content we find on the Internet to see if we can find similarities.
How stupid is that?
If you understand German, check out this new service – it seems very cool to me:

It was also crawling my Web site:

Ok, boys and girls: Have a nice day! I have to do some work now…
