If I were you I'd focus more on creating other nice stuff than trying to protect something inherently impossible to protect (client-side javascript). Look at it this way: you can try hard to protect it even though you're likely to fail (as has been said, if it's worth stealing then it will be stolen), or you can avoid wasting your time to protect it and do something else valuable. Would you rather have 1 great thing and have a possibility of preventing the 1st one from falling in wrong hands or have 2 great things? You can't always have everything. If your thing gets copied, you'll still have it. Also, I wouldn't worry much about a competitor that has to rely on copying you to keep up with you... As a radical solution, you could publish the code and blog a lot about it, at least this way nobody can claim they wrote the code themselves... PS: Sorry for all the "thing"s...
