It looks like that's Jude (bad friend).

If you arrange the numbers based on the text on the page it gives:
857 4532 490
Possibly a phone number? 857 is a Massachusetts area code which I think is where Amanda Palmer was/is based.
Any US residents wanna give the number a try?

Dang it, I was just coming here to post that! Yes, it's a phone number. (857) 453-2490 is Amanda's voice mail. There are messages from Jack, Sheila, Beth, and Jude (including the one in the video clip). Good job!

Re: [ARG] "Who Killed Amanda Palmer?" Re: Alexa Webb Update (I think -- I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before) to Alexa Webb's 404 page.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The colored squares are a simple substitution cipher:
"THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG
THE QUICK BROWN FOX DRIVES A FAST NEW CAR
SHES SO QUICK SHE COVERS HER TRACKS
THE NUMBERS DONT
LINE UP HTML"
Put lineup.html in the address bar to see Alexa Webb's parking violation in Boston.

Wow, this thing sure has fleshed out!
I had WKAP either like when it came out, maybe a week before (friends in A&R type places ), and didn't see much from the album art on first glance.
Today I got a friend request from Amanda on MySpace, which seemed kinda weird, and when I came by to check the thread I was delighted to see it's coming along. Guess it's time to catch up, huh?

Re: [ARG] "Who Killed Amanda Palmer?" Message from Neil Gaiman Neil Gaiman sent email to the regular subscribers to Amanda Palmer's newsletter. (Possibly trying to increase awareness of and participation in the ARG?)

Update. Just saw this Alexa Webb update.
I've mailed to see what response I'd get. Hopefully it's something useful.
also, maybe I'm thinking too much, but:
-on RJ's message page, does the cancellation on the card mean anything? What do you guys think?
-How many of you actually have had contact with the Stranger? Seems like he might be stalking Laura now.

Re: Melody’s Notebook. Pt.2 - Pt.6 page 4 The first letters of the items in the shopping list on page 4 spell out "The Stranger." (See why I'm embarrassed that I overlooked your secret message?)
