My public moblog "raped at the pump" where people submit photos of gas prices in their town just got written up in Wired...

<http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,60230,00.html>

here's a quote:

"Some residents of the Golden State, however, are finding ways to protest having to pay the highest prices in the nation for gasoline.

Sean Bonner, of Los Angeles, set up the photo blog Raped at the Pump earlier this month to demonstrate in visual form the extreme variance in gas prices nationwide. As of Thursday, contributors had sent in 68 pictures of gas-station price signs from all over the world.

After hearing much grumbling about gas prices, Bonner said he created the site to give people a better idea of whether they are overpaying.

"You can take condolence in that you're not the only one, or get angry because you're paying a lot more than everyone else," he said. "
