Not disingenuous at all. Qwiki won an award for technology innovation, the quick demo simply proved that their was nothing special or unique about Qwiki. Re your three points:

1) What does their future development plans have to do with anything? 2) What does server admin, marketing and documentation have to do wtih technological innovation? 3) What does debugging have to do with technological innovation?




I was responding to the claim in the title about "cloning" Qwiki. What Banksy did was nowhere near cloning Qwiki.

Turns out that Banksy is just claiming to have built a proof-of-concept showing that the underlying technology is simple. You are right that the three points I made don't have much at all to do with technological innovation. Point granted. :)
