AboveTopSecret.com

I was interested in this blog from the get go.  I typed "conspiracy" into google and the first thing I got was abovetopsecret.com.  Its an interesting sight.  The lime green lettering makes you feel mildly uncomfortable and the excess of advertisements makes you wonder how underground they really are.  The news headings range from well known current events to 9/11 conspiracies, making everyone from the dumb-as-dirt to the mildly cognizant feel right at home.  A quick look at their "About Us" link shows that they have a quarter million members having written over twelve million posts of "substance."  Here is a look at some of these posts.

"Is the actual end of the world Dec 24 not Dec 11?" -demonologist842012

"probably not" -userrider123

"Very, VERY doubtful. Really not worth worrying about. If it did actually occur, there is nothing you or any one can do about it any way. It would be the end. Just chill" -maythetruthbeknown

Now since I was expecting verbal upchuck, we do have to give them credit for at least making coherent sentences

What rating does AboveTopSecret.com get?  Im going with a B-.  The site itself is clean and organized and their philosophy of making up for crappy news by just having a lot of it is at least novel in its excess.

Stay tuned for more blogging on blogs...
