so what is up with this site? It really confuses me, but im thinking this smells strongly of an ARG....any thought would be welcome.....so yeah. check it out. It might not be working right on my computer, but the page loads blank with crazy background music playing and in the upper left corner there is a control of some sort (you know, the kind where if you leave your mouse on it, a message box pops up that says "Click here to activate this control"). I clicked on the control, but not a lot happened for me. Any other (and different) experiences would be great to hear about. (I cant decide if its ARG or not, so please check it out and post back.)

 		For some reason, this doesn't trigger ARG to me.

How's this for search keywords?

Not exactly reaching out to a direct audience, huh?

I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but this seems more like a fansite in the progress. A very strange fansite.

It's Chava Alberstein. She's an Israeli singer who sings Yiddish and Israeli folksongs, as well as some original music.

The music used is the ending of a song called "Ballad of the Horse," and as the embedded Flash element is called sus.swf, and sus is Hebrew for "horse," I'd imagine that either it has something to do with the song, or maybe is just the mechanism used to get the song to play.

As for the domain's name, say it out loud. Smile "I-i-i-" I think is just a spelling pun on the "ay-ay-ay" in the song.

FWIW, the other two singers mentioned in the keywords are Israeli as well.

I dunno, considering the domain name, I think maybe it's just a joke.
