New Sites Prove the Power of Wikis for the Mainstream Consumer and Include Something for Da Vinci Code Aficionados, LEGO Enthusiasts, New York Pizza Lovers, World Cup Fans, Wannabe Comics, and LeBron James Fans

May 16, 2006 -- Wetpaint (http://www.wetpaint.com/) today launched six new websites built on its innovative new platform. The Wetpaint platform combines the best aspects of wikis, blogs, and forums in a way that makes it easy for consumers to add or edit site content so they can easily express their knowledge and passions around any topic. The company, currently in its testing phase, will soon launch the ability for any web user to create their own site from scratch. "Testing is going well and we're excited to see the amount of contribution that is taking place on Wetpaint-powered sites," said Ben Elowitz, CEO of Wetpaint. "We've had a lot of people asking for sites on a variety of topics and we can't wait to see what sites people will create on their own when we move out of our testing phase later this year."
