Reminds me of when DropBox "copied" my idea of automatically uploading every picture you took from your phone. Mine was a web-app with mobile component. The idea was to make it so easy you would never have to think about it. I even had plans that it would create albums for you based upon dates or locations. I was in the middle of writing the application when DropBox released their upload every picture you take service, shortly followed by many others.

DropBox's idea (your idea, or whoever) is a genius idea. The ability to use your phone or tablet to take pictures and not worry about backing it up (because the app does it all for you) is a priceless experience.
