Bloggers Picking Up on Downing Street Memo

What do a communications manager from an industrial multinational, a law student, a graphic designer and a Canadian civil servant have in common?
The answer? DowningStreetMemo.com.
In response to U.S. media silence surrounding a pre-war memorandum leaked on the eve of the recent British elections, the foursome created a website referencing the memo written in the heart of British government, 10 Downing Street.
Authored by a foreign policy aide to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, the memo is perhaps the most damning ammunition in the arsenal of those seeking to demonstrate that the decision to go to war in Iraq was fixed.
