I'm quite new to ARGs, but Holomove intrigues me, and I can proudly say I've been lurking from Day One. Some accomplishment, right? Just kidding. Don't know how much or often I can contribute, but I did spot something today that you might like to know about. I wasn't even looking for anything Holomove, but while I was searching for a new laptop I saw that the Notebook Review forums have begun displaying Holomove ads. http://www.notebookreview.com/

Can anyone else see these ads? When Im go to the link the ad banners are missing with an error message or just a blank white box.

I've tried clearing cookies and temp files but same result.

alexbutterfield, I think it's 48 years not 58 so you might want to correct your post above.

Thanks for reminding me/us about the lumen game. I'm going to download it and take a closer look.

Not pouncing just excited. I thought you meant today as in it was just invented today I didn't know you meant anniversary. Thought maybe you had found something new.

Okay, not to point any fingers here. But Sean who posted for the firs time with his find about the ads, his/your username is StarFire2258.

Starfire is an Airforce research lab.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but either this is a huge coincidence or Sean is into this ARG because he's into lasers, or he's just come to the site to give us a nudge in the right direction.

If you're reading this Sean, and want to set me straight then

I found this by clicking on the google laser logo, then the wiki link

Quote:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser

then by spotting the picture and name on the right hand side of the page.

Edit: I take it back, Sean, I just found your 1up profile, guess youve been using that username for a while and it is just a coincidence. "the real coincidence would be if there were no coincidences" or somet like that.

hmmm, a google-arg, that would be cool... they certainly have the coin, and the knowhow... only time will tell i suppose

[alexbutterfield]

You don't think this is a google ARG do you?

It seems like a coincidence that they are celebrating the first laser - on its 58th birthday? they couldnt wait 2 years? There are also the banner ads - dont google supply lots of sites with ads? can we check if these are google ads?

And google is a CA company with the muscle to pull a game like this off.

This laser talk also reminds me of the Lumen game I mentioned a lot of pages back. It is designed by the kid, Bridger Maxwell, who is linked from Nates blog.

You basically have to direct lasers through a series of blocks. I downloaded it and tried it, wondering if by completing it you might get a message or something. its not the sort of game you can complete though. its just loads of random levels, no progression or anything.

does anyone make anything of the slogans from the banners? or do we think they are just meant to get people to check holomove?

anyway, when you click on the lazers it gives a bunch of searches on the very first laser ever made. Today is the anniversary. May 16 ...today is May 16.


The date is also used in wikipedia for first functioning laser ever made.

The first working laser was demonstrated on May 16, 1960 by Theodore Maiman at Hughes Research Laboratories

Nice. The logo is laser08.gif and the title and alternate text is "Invention of the first laser.

When you click on the logo you will get this page the same as doing a search on the keywords first laser.

Hey Sean, welcome. Very good first entry too, even as a guest (.

Btw, did anyone tried to pm the youtube user?
