WebSapient? More like HOMOSapient! (So-called design company rips off entire portfolio from Pinoy designer)

UPDATE: As of yesterday afternoon. WebSapient has taken down its portfolio page. That’s well and good, but none of us who blogged about the whole affair are planning to delete our blog entries to serve as a reminder for  them.

==========

You remember how much I hate plagiarizers? Well it seems like there’s no stopping them. Read on for the latest offense against a friend of mine.

Meet Marco Palinar, a very talented site guy (you can check out his portfolio here), and fellow asshole of the interwebs.

Now meet WebSapient (you can Google their website. I’m not about to link to scum like them if I can avoid it), a so-called design firm offering internet solutions to people who don’t know better.

If you bothered to go to WebSapient’s website, please go to their portfolio page and see if you see anything familiar. If you didn’t even go to their website, then good for you. But then I shall be forced to describe it by way of re-enacting my reaction:

“Hey, they have some pretty cool designs. They must be really tale—wait. This MV logo looks familiar”

“That’s Mike’s logo. They couldn’t have done that because Mikey blogged how Marco designed that logo. And this implicitly tells us that should anybody not named Marco claim to have made that logo, then that person should be famous for including human testicles in his or their diet.

Also, they should be famous for NOT being Marco.”

Getting over that initial shock, you’d notice that WebSapient’s ENTIRE portfolio consists of nothing but Marco’s work.

So I’m temporarily going out of hiatus to throw this little rant out to the internet, and hopefully fuck with WebSapient’s Google searchability.

Also, here’s a list of things that WebSapient doesn’t have:

• A very opinionated lady who will initiate a web movement to mess with their shit.
  
• Somebody who may be gay, but is willing to lend his Google Page rank to mess with their shit.
• A gay who may actually be a straight guy who hates plagiarizers as much as he does straight sex!
• Jaypee’s blog entry
• Ideographer
• Joel’s blog entry
• Rico’s entry
• John’s entry
• A significant number of Pinoy bloggers who may write their own take on the issue. And who are doing their part in spreading the word to mess with their shit.
• Balls
• Cocks
• Sex, with a real person.

And last, if you share our sentiments, and if you have a Digg account, please Digg Liz’s blog entry so you can give it more exposure, and mess with their shit.
