Hello and welcome to the latest and greatest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! As to be expected let's kick this week's Spotlight off with a handful of important site announcements. If you were wondering what filming the Big Live Live Show Live was like check out Drew Scanlon's latest blog. Engineer Mike gives you an update about an update for the troublesome image uploader on Giant Bomb. Next we have the most substantial news in a while. Top Man Ethan has plans to roll out mini Wikia Websites using Whiskey Media tech for individual Game Franchises or major video game series. If you have any games that would fit having such sites or would like to manage/moderate one join Google+ and let out a yelp over here. Finally always remember to check out the Giant Bomb YouTube page for the best and latest in intern content as well as the Bomb Shelter for the best the Giant Bomb Community has to offer.
