http://www.Powerbase.info 
Founders: David Miller, William Dinan, Eveline Lubbers, Andy Rowell
In its own words:
"Powerbase is a free encyclopedia of people, issues, and groups shaping the public agenda that is being written collaboratively on this website. It catalogues descriptions and details of PR firms, activist groups and government agencies as well as the criticisms that are made of these groups from different perspectives."
Rebranding
Spinprofiles was shut down on 21 June, 2010 by Webhosting firm 1&1, [1] because of a profile on think-tank researcher Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens, son of journalist Christopher Hitchens. Further details were requested but not supplied. The content was moved to a new domain name, Powerbase, which was registered through a different webhost.
WikiSpooks Acknowledgement
SpinProfiles, now Powerbase was a major source of content and inspiration when setting up the WikiSpooks site.
