By now you must know that
Modernista has gotten
boatloads of publicity over
its non-Web site Web site which simply refers people to what others are saying about them online. So, Brian
Morrissey at AdFreak this morning reports that not only did
Modernista "steer" its
Wikipedia entry, but that company founders Lance Jensen and Gary
Koepke wouldn't wow anybody with their Web 2.0-o-city. Now, Brian tweets that
Wikipedia has posted the following
on its Modernista page: " The website for this company obscures our logo with their own, and may lead the viewer to believe that
Wikipedia serves as their homepage provider. This is not correct.
Wikipedia has no affiliation with
Modernista and has requested that
Modernista cease this use of our website.
Wikipedia is an
encyclopaedia written from a neutral point of view and does not endorse nor condemn
Modernista, but is opposed to being used as a promotional mechanism in this manner for any third party." No one said this Web 2.0 thing was gonna be easy, you know.

Fair is fair, ClickZ's blog pointed out the Wikipedia page, which was originally pointed out by Marc Schiller on Twitter.
