Press release:

Wikia opens new "magazine rack" websites

Wikia, Inc., (http://www.wikia.com ) the leading provider of community resources for building free content on every topic, today unveiled three new communities for entertainment, local and politics, in a move designed to significantly enhance the ability of passionate people to collaborate online. Following its acquisition of the popular online sports community, ArmchairGM ( http://www.armchairgm.com ) last year, Wikia began working to create fan-driven communities that incorporate the same interactive features of the ArmchairGM site, including democratic sorting of content, blogging, commenting and more.

The new collaborations announced today include:

    * The Entertainment Community ( http://entertainment.wikia.com ), which provides T.V. and movie lovers with a place to create episode guides, movie and actor reviews, or blog about all-things Hollywood.

    * Your Local Community ( http://local.wikia.com ), which features individual sections for nearly every town in the United States--users can search for their town's section using their zip code. On the site, anyone can post local news, information on local events, blog about local happenings or create a place for discussion around issues facing their community.

    * The Politics Community ( http://politics.wikia.com ), which features national, state and local sections where users are able to search and contribute by state and/or zip code. Contributors can share and discuss their political opinions, build out historical resources and voter guides, or simply just read and comment on the others thoughts and learn about political issues.
