4chan (anonymous imageboard)
(Rules 1 & 2 do not apply.)
How does being completely anonymous in sea of anonymous people affect your activity? Could be an interesting look at mob theory, emergence theory, social norms, and the complete lack of respect for it. 4chan is known for generating the funniest, sickest, and most disturbing content online. Definitely cool look at crowd sourcing.
I'm sure many RIT students spend hours on 4chan. This will be difficult to research and write about, but if done well, could be wildly successful. Written/collaborated anonymously?

I support this :D
I'm sure we could grab some find some beautiful images to put in this article.
But in all seriousness, 4chan is the creator of Internet memes. The internet has been effected by 4chan, yet it doesn't get any credit. 4chan is the internet culture creation pool. :P
