"[T]ools like Versionista are making it easier still to spot alteration over time." -- The Economist
"Beyond the gotcha value, there are other very useful applications for [Versionista]. You can use it to monitor prices on a product
page. You can keep an eye on a competitor's site for changes relevant to your business, or for additions to their news page. -- CNET
"John McCain's campaign published a side-by-side comparison of Barack Obama's Iraq War policy web pages on Tuesday using a new
automated online tracking service called Versionista." -- Wired
"Versionista helps to promote accountability by giving activists the ability to see when politicians have changed the language of
their campaign promises and policy statements." -- ars technica

Versionista monitors Web sites that you specify for edits. Our Web-based service records every change,
clearly highlighting added or deleted words and sentences.
You can view multiple generations of edit histories for every page on a site. At the same
time, filtering eliminates information overload by tracking only content that matters.
Versionista was designed by PhDs for the rough-and-tumble world of today's Web.
- Every site edit, version, and deletion is "set in stone" by Versionista on an hour-by-hour basis.
- Precise historical mapping of a Web site's edits, including "scrubbing" of potentially
compromising information, is a competitive advantage to journalists, campaigns,
corporations, legal professionals, and activists.
- Versionista gives a "big picture" visualization of the evolution of a site, particularly one that has multiple editors, bloggers,
or outside contributors.
A side-by-side comparison and multiple other views let you see "before and after" versions of every monitored page. We highlight what
text has been added, deleted, or moved. Versionista will keep up to 25 versions per page. You can "rollback" in time to see older
versions.

August 9th, 2008 Freddie Mac’s corporate information page deletes a number of pages from its Public Policy section (notably including the Fulfilling Our Mission page). Update: Seems as though key topics are also no more. (You have to admire their persnicketiness when it comes to PDF file sizes!)
