Google copying UK WW?

[temi]

A few days after I started UK WW German section, Google launched their German blog, I would like to think Google has been watching all the creative stuff we are doing at this forum and copying us
UK WW German forum is here: (No members yet

Exceprts from the Google blog announcing German blog here:

Webmasters, Google Sprechen Deutsch
We love our webmaster community, and with Webmaster Central, we provide as much information and interaction about how Google crawls and indexes websites as we can, in 18 languages. We also regularly provide information and tips in our webmaster blog. The blog has been available only in English. Until now. We're very happy to launch our first non-English webmaster blog: the German Webmaster-Zentrale Blog. If you speak German, head there to read German versions of the English blog posts, as well as news and tips specifically for the German market. Willkommen!

What a co-incident? It is nice if google is watching us here I think we need to do more awareness in some German forums, sites or whatever for our UK WW German forum section so that we will have people in the section.

Yeah, I think that is what precisely happened. Google came here, saw the german section and said let's start one too to compete with UK Webmaster World.
Google must feel really threatened by UK Webmaster World.
