Makers of not whiskey.
Makers of not whiskey.
If you don't already know, you are currently on a website that is the creation of Whiskey Media, a company that I heard is now larger than Google, Microsoft, and SkyNet combined! However, I feel that the company still has room to grow, expand, and grow. At this moment, Whiskey Media has dabbled in politics (and ultimately failed) yet succeeded in the world of video games, anime, comics, and gadgetry. And now... movies. So that means the quintet of websites is complete, right? Wrong! I have some suggestions so continue reading! 
 
  • Food and beverage - Giant Bomb has been slacking in this department as they try to focus on video games of all things so maybe Whiskey Media can cut Giant Bomb some slack with a website dedicated to edible eats. Wiki pages can be categorized by taste, texture, smell, and more! Forums dedicated to food (the staff Photoshop thread will be in the video game forum) and reviews of the latest in restaurant cuisine. And I can name one candidate suitable for the job. And if that doesn't convince you, hot dog toaster reviews.
  • Music - Like Pitchfork but not up its own ass. Get a group of music enthusiasts together (like this guy) and get those reviews and podcasts going! I'd love to see what content we can add to the Auto-Tune wiki page.
  • Politics - Yeah, maybe you can bring that back and I can spread my form of political extremism throughout the interwebs.
  • Weather - Get yourself one of them Doppler radar things, have a guy on stand-by in Florida during the hurricane season, and just fucking fake it.
  • Wikis - A website dedicated to wikis. All you need is a catchy name. Metawiki.com is unfortunately taken.
  • Amish culture - I've always hoped Whiskey Media would start a site for those who love the Amish way of life, but the Amish (and people in general) find the internet to be a wicked, wicked place so traffic would be really low. Then again, there is a huge fanbase of butter churners out there.
  • Terrorism - We can call it Giant Bomb... er, wait a sec.
  • Aglets - You know, the plastic on the ends of shoelaces. Think of the possibilities!
  • Whiskey Media users - Perhaps more meta than the wiki wiki site.
 
Okay, to be honest the first two I am hoping happens eventually. I doubt Whiskey Media would ever consider creating a site for food enthusiasts, but I think a music site has serious potential. I have yet to join the other sites as I've been typically a single forum guy, but get that music site up and running and I'm there on day one.

The terrorist line made me laugh. I'd like to see a music/political site, the latter of which would be a great place to dump all of these political threads.

Politics on the internet never works out well. But I am all for the Amish branch of Whiskey Media, but the wiki would have to be etched in stone somewhere because of the evils of teh interwebz.

This is ripe with mind blowage. 
 
As an aside, "wiki wiki" sounds like you're getting busy on the wheels of steel.

Music is probably the next natural step. But seems like people either hate or love a genre, I don't know how a community would work out.

Hm...I guess they could have one site devoted to toys. You know, an extensive Transformers wiki where I can see the different versions of Optimus Prime.

Easy.  A Whiskey Media site that revolves around celebrity gossip.  Mostly gossip concerning women.  Hot women.

I dont think a cooking website is so far fetched. The wiki could work for recipes, for defining cooking implements, measurements, ingredients.
 
It would be a very different site with a very different userbase, but who knows.

I'd just like pan-Whiskey user identities, so when we register for one, we register for all, and keep the wiki points we earn across the sites.

Music? No. It's hard to be a music site and not be up its own ass Pitchfork-style.

Food and beverage? Nice, though there's a lot websites about that.

Politics? Now we're talking! I'd really like to see something HUGELY community based, in the style of The Daily Show. With a big nudge, about the whole world, based mostly on user content.

I think it could actually work myself and I'd actually sign up for something like that, but I doubt most people here would be interested in it or would be able to contribute meaningful content. All we'd be interested in are reviews of hamburgers and weird foreign snacks.

Would be pretty great though. Well a cooking wiki. Replaces games with dishes, objects with ingredients, concepts with cooking techniques, turn locations into countries of origin, make something for cooking tools and there you go. Allow users to make a list of all the ingredients and tools that they have and the wiki will list you every dish you can make with them.
I actually would really like such a (improbable) thing to happen.
 
edit: missed Rowr's reply on the second page when posting this.

  Hamburger recipes will make sure that a good part of the Giantbomb users will visit it daily.

I'd always assumed that if Alex got involved with Whiskey Media he'd be on a music site.

Actually the music site would' be great.
 However, for politics, really?
 
And porn IS a MUST.
 
On a serious note though, I think one for toys and figurines is a good idea.

Whiskey Media already had a political site.  It was called Political Base.  It closed down last year.  A shame, because it was an awesome site.

On the wikipedia page for Whiskeymedia it says that they have 2 new sites planned before the end of 2010.
