Room110.com, a "Gossip Girl-type" website where students can post "updates" about each other and current affairs at their campus, reports that since its launch last week, officials at various institutions across Canada have sent letters to the student gossip site trying to have certain aspects of the site removed. Room110.com says some institutions have also tried to block its URL from campus computers. Institutions added to Room110 include UBC, York U, Ryerson, Dal, UoGuelph, McGill, McMaster, Seneca, Humber, uWindsor, uToronto, WLU, UWO, Queen's, George Brown College, and uCalgary.
