Yankidank.com
I founded the video game news site Yankidank.com a few years ago when I was frustrated with existing game news and review sites that were littered with advertisements and lacked quality content. There were few sites in existence that seemed to run the gamut for video game industry news. I took it upon myself to start my own site and aggregate content from various sources to edit together articles that I felt were both entertaining and important.
Soon after starting the site I took a leap from written editorial writing to starting an audio podcast. Podcasting was a new concept at the time that few people had started to get into, this was long before Apple endorsed the idea through iTunes. I hosted a weekly show featuring the latest news from the video game industry and would give my impressions of the latest games and demos. The podcast grew in popularity and I quickly became one of the most recognized podcasts at the time, and probably the best known video game podcast.
