I can't help but think every time I see a layout like this "oh boy another pinterest clone" and it's really too bad because I nearly instantly discard the idea no matter how cool it might be.

I realize the same cycle happened with digg, reddit, stack overflow, twitter, and facebook clones when they were the new hotness, but I really do wish designers and developers weren't so likely to take whatever the current fad is and apply it to their current idea.
