A group of bloggers have organised a protest in Rome to demand the resignation of scandal-ridden Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. They estimate a turnout of 350,000 participants for what they are calling "No Berlusconi Day." The movement has its own web site, www.noberlusconiday.org, which was launched in October by a half-dozen bloggers. One of the organisers, Gianfranco Macia, wrote on the site that the movement was "the first initiative of its kind totally mobilised on the internet."
