YOUTUBE REPLY!!! LennyDillane has sent you a message on YouTube:
Re: iamblind.org
audrey can see.
Audreyplainview?
What you all think?
Oh and I replied to Lenny asking about audrey.
Sometimes it's hard for me to post in here, is that typical? (newbie here!)

evanly, the board slowed down for awhile, but that is not typical in my experience here.
I am hesitant to comment on the message you got since I've read the book. I think I'll hold off on that.

It probably is game-related. I'm just hesitant to say anything remotely spoilery so I'd rather just wait and see what's to come.

So cool, getting interaction! Way to go evanly!
So I went to metacafe.com where audrey has an account (she was online an hour ago by the way), where I found out she has a twitter also:
http://twitter.com/audreyplainview
Only one twitter entry only, but I think plenty of stuff for us to digest and figure the meaning. The twitter says:

Click and discuss, please!
EDIT: no other account name we know produces a result on twitter.

Nice job on the twitter account riquardo! It's interesting to see how widespread it is on the map.

Well, being an ARGer I was so preoccupied on seing where the locations were and the coordinates, only to later realize that all the points form an eye, with the envelope in the middle. So I guess the places might not be that important...

Obviously, the flags form the shape of an eye. The "You" envelope... maybe they plan on sending postcards to the people who sent in their addresses? No new info, as far as I could tell (may have missed something), but interesting none the less!
EDIT: Dang, beaten!... Twice!

I've also been thinking about this: Audreyplainview on Bolt.com seems to be the only one (in every site we know) to have an avatar picture. Check it again at: http://www.bolt.com/audreyplainview
The name of the file is: 1221695555018.jpg
I wonder if there's any significance to that number...

ok... the images shown on the locations on the map are hosted on flickr. reverse engineering the url to find the user leads to:
user "i am blind"
http://www.flickr.com/photos/30538668@N05/
who admins one group "i am blind"
http://www.flickr.com/groups/iamblind/
(yes I've friended and joined said accounts )
eta: I've been trying to decode the matrix on the stamp in the photostream, but it's not getting recognized by anything I've got

On the stamp it kind of looks like the marking they put over something that you have to scratch off. Perhaps whatever we get in the mail will have that stamp on it.
Welcome to Boomer52 and SpunkySoda9. The email I sent didn't bounce. Give it a try.

On the right hand corner of the stamp, it seems to me as those QR codes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code) or something the like. I did a quick search to see if the US postage stamps all that sign and they clearly have not. Another clue?
(if so, now we have to find a way to interpret it)

The wiki page says, "A user having a camera phone equipped with the correct reader software can scan the image of the QR Code causing the phone's browser to launch and redirect to the programmed URL." Anyone with a camera phone want to give that a try?
Just noticed these numbers under the 42 on the stamp:
10100007500
