hey folks,
i just started a free wiki service called "theshallot.org". It's an online community for budding comedy writers or just people who want to be funny to post satirical news (ala theonion, but this is news of the people, by the people). It's based on the same wiki engine that wikipedia uses, so it's easy to use. Check it out:

Still, best of luck. I'm sure you'll get a few good articles.
Make no mistake, this is not a "take on the Onion" type of thing. It's really a social experiment to see if the internet community can "shape" funny, much in the same way that the internet community creates encyclopedic content that is factual, notable and accurate via wikipedia. I'm hoping that weak articles (ex: Osama on cribs) will either be modified, upgraded or removed, but I don't want to tell the community how to shape the content... it's up to you.
A mod is a moderator - the admin for these forums. C'mon, not taking on the onion? You're called The Shallot.
