Script Mimic is a script directory which operates differently from other script directories such as Hotscripts; instead of filing scripts into categories, Script Mimic places them with websites they are similar to (so far example wikis go under Wikipedia).

Calling it a script directory is somewhat misleading. The site is much more social than a directory, it might be better classified as a forum. The reason for this is because users post a website (like Wikipedia or MySpace) and other users then reply with both free and commercial scripts which would create a similar site.

The site is a much more Web 2.0 approach to script directories, but it doesn’t exactly put people off stealing the ideas of others (I had a moan about this a few days ago).

It’s important to say while sites like this make it easier to copy ideas, you’re not going to get the same success if you merely copy an idea.
