San Francisco, Calif. (PRWEB) February 5, 2009 -- Wikia, Inc., today announced Lostpedia as the newest addition to the Wikia Entertainment Network, the largest collection of entertainment wikis on the web. A wildly popular fan-site for ABC's cult hit LOST, Lostpedia has rapidly grown into a must-have resource for the show's fans since its inception in 2005. Today, Lostpedia boasts more than 5,000 articles that provide an unparalleled depth of information about the past four seasons of LOST - and more content is added daily with the fifth season underway. Lostpedia features the largest and most comprehensive database of LOST's greatest mysteries, including information on everything from the polar bears to that four-toed statue, to Jacob and the cabin. Each mystery is chronicled in great detail and classified as "solved," "unsolved," or "partially solved," making it the perfect, easy-to-use resource for any true LOST fan that is looking for answers to some of the Island's most perplexing questions.

With new episodes now airing, I'm sometimes not sure what I'm more excited for - watching the show or reading the Lostpedia community's reaction.
