Internet Nominated For 2010 Nobel Peace Prize 259
An anonymous reader writes "It's official. The Internet, which has virtually revolutionized world communication, has been nominated for the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize. 'Organizers said signatories to its petition backing the nomination include 2003 peace laureate and exiled Iranian activist Shirin Ebadi — which would make it a legitimate entry.' The nomination was proposed by the Italian edition of Wired magazine for promoting 'dialogue, debate and consensus through communication' as well as democracy."

If Obama got the award for DOING NOTHING, why not give it to an communication system?
Seriously, if the :"Internet" wins the award, it will be the same as when Obama won it.

I think it's obvious that we'd all get a cut.
