I'd like to talk about RTmark.com. I think this is one of the most
creative Internet-age projects going. It's fun, it's political, and it
skewers big fish.

I like the idea of creating critical sites like GWbush.com or
Yesrudy.com. I think what the McLibel folks did with their site also
ties into this thread. The ruling class really crapped in their pants
about that website. I even found a book on web marketing aimed at
business types that used the McLibel website as a case example of how
lawyers can screw up a company's image.
