I was reading the Wall Street Journal this morning, like I do every morning and toward the end of the article I seen a familiar name. So if you read this article you can see for yourself.

I just want to say congrats to Giant bomb for taking it to the extreme and using interns and users to build your site.
Giant bomb in the Wall Street Journal
Mourning? Did someone die?
And good job GB, although it had to happen sooner or later seeing as how it's totally killing internet growth records. Check it out yourself:

Dude, that's awesome. Apparently back in November Giant Bomb was on a Rock Band 2 ad, posted in Time Square (NYC.) Blizzard also posted Giant Bomb's review of Wrath of the Lich King on the front page of the WoW official website.
A plug inside the Wall Street Journal is leagues better and more prestigious. And I never knew GB was getting 80,000 hits a day! Great find, TC. This is really good news!
"Dude, that's awesome. Apparently back in November Giant Bomb was on a Rock Band 2 ad, posted in Time Square (NYC.) Blizzard also posted Giant Bomb's review of Wrath of the Lich King on the front page of the WoW official website.They were mentioned not that long ago in relevance to a hentai-themed rape game, if I'm not mistaken. Perhaps rape isn't the best way to get your name out there, but it is technically free-commercial advertising.

Oh...Well, er...maybe they should pay that mother of octuplets to name one of her babies "GiantBomb." PUBLICITY IS PUBLIC AND MONEY CASH, AMIRITE OR AMIRITE?!
lol giantbomb actually HIRED 2 interns to fill the guide? lol hell they could have saved money and a headache since those interns pretty much pulled all the info from mobygames.
Pretty awesome isn't it? I think everyone can pat themselves on the back, sleep with a smile in the knowledge that we all helped make this place what it is. Obviously more credit goes toward the Staff for actually thinking up and building the site. But the community has helped keep it alive, congratulations to everyone.
80,000 hits a day is some astounding traffic.
