This saddens me. I understand the need for such a service, but refuse to take you seriously with such a blatant disregard for originality and uniqueness. Next time a website inspires you, please don't copy + paste.

can you point out any of our code from about.me?

I think you would have a better argument if the sites graphic design didn't appear to copy http://about.me

You're being unreasonable, they're not exactly the same thing. Most popular sites are derivatives of similar ideas.
