The web site was created after the launch of the book "Ship It!" and discusses issues from Continuous Integration to web hosting providers.
On Tony Semana's blog we find a great example of Blitzkrieg testing in action. You can read about it here.
Here are a few quotes:
...we had rebuilt basic coverage of the existing features and planned release features prior to the start of the testing cycle, and a good picture of what needed to be accomplished when the application was built into our test environment. Our testing cycle was still very short and effective because we knew where to focus our manual tests, integration bugs were found and resolved quickly, and we added automated tests to cover many of the bugs found manually to address bug regression. In the end it allowed 3 of the 5 main project members, including myself, to keep vacations this week that were booked out months in advance.
and
This process captures a very effective way of implementing the practice of automated testing (in this case acceptance/integration testing) in an environment/project where none exists.
