Taking Unencyclopedia and spinning it on its head, this fantastic website gives the citizens of America (and the rest of the world) a good laugh at almost anything you could imagine in the news.
From the war on terror to Google's dominance, the Onion website is a great place to log on to for a quick laugh.
The site has been made very well and the content passes a very high standard, looking very professional with the use of video clips and it's strong branding.
One of the best video's I've seen on this site was about Google taking over the world, and the only way to get out of Google's tracking is to join an opt-out scheme, where people who don't want Google to get them can be placed in a mini village where there's no computers or hospitals etc. A brilliant spoof idea that works very well in convincing the audience that Google really are taking over and it's getting beyond a joke now.
The Onion website will not only make you laugh, but make you think, and I believe that's one of the most important aspects of web design.
