A nice summary of Versionista from ABC News Science and Technology blog.

We didn’t realize until now that the McCain site linked to Versionista again. They were highlighting edits to Obama’s Social Security page.

More notably, another use of Versionista by the McCain site garnered some international press. Their highlight of changes to Obama’s Urban Policy page, and the deletion of reference to a Foreclosure Prevention Fund, was mentioned in The Scotsman, The Press and Journal, and The Spectator.

Slate.com published many, many interesting Versionista edits. If you’re interested to see recent edits to the political sites, check the Slate article for notable before-and-after comparisons. (Note that we have a new logo in Slate… you will be seeing it here as soon as we get the new site design in place.)

The Slate piece was used as a basis for this Dutch article. Perhaps related, we also got another mention in CNET.

Why, oh why, is the term “August 3, 2008″ in the top 10 of the most searched for terms on the NY Times… for several weeks running now? And several weeks AFTER August 3rd!
