The New Wikipedia Gotcha Tool

Via the WIRED blog Threat Level, the Wikipedia Scanner tracks changes to Wikipedia and the originating IP of those edits.

A few items that I found interesting:
  • someone at the neo-conservative "think" tank, the American Enterprise Institute (right around the corner, literally, from my office - I can feel the evil sometimes), contributed some nice embellishments of the entry for David Frum, a former Bush speechwriter.
  • ADM trumpeting their development of some kind of bio-degradable plastic.
  • Best Buy, defending their shitty employees and even shittier service plans and business practices.
Fun stuff, eh?

Hi fellow Baltimorean. Please visit www.charmcitywiki.com. It's a citywide Wiki that I literally started today. It needs people to add content.
