Where to blow the whistle...

WikiLeaks is spawning, please forgive the pun, lots of leak-a-like sites. Clones are springing up across the world, as ReadWriteWeb reports here, with examples in Belgium, the Balkans, the Philippines, Israel and Indonesia.

And Reuters lists more in Europe, including OpenLeaks.org, whose principal creator is Daniel Domscheit-Berg, a German who was once Julian Assange's closest collaborator.

One of the latest is based in the United States, localeaks, which has been developed by a journalism college student. It provides a drop-box for whistleblowers to leak information on behalf of 1,400 American newspapers.

It has launched in advance of a possible "in-house submission system" planned by the New York Times.
