Isn't "Dive Into" a trademark of Mark Pilgrim ? - trading off of someone-else's brand is kind of tacky.

  I don't know if that's true but considering that apparently he committed info-suicide (or something like that... http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3073798 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3073798) I highly doubt he will sue anybody at this point.

    Whether or not his websites are still online doesn't erase the built-up brand. The "Dive Into..." books are still mirrored and generally respected resources.

    It is not his Trademark but it is his trademark. I don't think it is really an issue of it being illegal, it just gives the appearance that this person is trying to sell his wares on top of Mark's reputation.

  Given that Mark's work was always available for free... Now I respect him more. (no offence to the author of diveintoios)
