Thought you guys might be interested in this. Someone I know created this site years ago and it is a great resource to check in on possible goings-on behind corporate media story publication, editing and censorship.

As an example, The Register recently posted about it, as they used revisionista to track changes related to an ID card article.

here's the run down of the two main functions:
Watch Your Mouth
'Watch Your Mouth' monitors the BBC's 'Have Your Say' website and detects when comments get censored.
Revisionista
Revisionista monitors news websites and detects when articles change. The versions are viewable and the changes are highlighted.
It currently monitors a few key feeds from the BBC News website, The Guardian and The Independent.
I hope it is of some use to you truth seekers out there.
