481 days and counting.
Can anyone set an alarm clock for me in about 450 days?

It would seem I am missing out on a good book...The Stand, The Stand, The Stand! Oy vey iz mir!
I watch with avid anticipation.

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Redefine happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...

I think it's a teaser site for World War Z the Movie. It's listed under the "Movie Links" section on the World War Z wiki site. I know, I know it's a wiki, but it's all I have to go on at this point...

I'm calling it: World War Z viral marketing. The style of text is pretty damn close to the style of The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z.
However...448 day count-down?
Geez, I hope that's a count down to the movie, not the viral...
Also, the bible quote reminds me of the line from the Dawn of the Dead remake..."When there is no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth"
So yeah, I'm saying it's zombies

I came across the link on the WWZ Wikipedia article so I did some digging to see when the link got added.
To the best of my knowledge, I believe a user named Sherzo added the link on 23 Apr 09 (domain registered 01 Mar 09). Note the user contrib page where he has added long rants about the editing and quality of the WWZ article, as well as numerous vandalism complaints on his user talk page.
User page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sherzo
Article diff page: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_War_Z&action=historysubmit&diff=285561873&oldid=284235835
This leads me doubt its credibility.

I'm in, now we wait, this does seem interesting. And who doesn't love the sound of a nice zombie splat?

Sounds interesting, so I think I'll keep an eye on it. I've been off this board long enough
Here's a tip: FutureMe.org allows you to compose an email and then choose a date for the site to email it to you. Might I suggest emailing yourself a reminder a few days before the countdown ends?

I called the number (don't worry, I'm only going to call once) and the owner's name is Patrick.
I've been emailing him and he's saying his info was stolen. So I suggest we don't bother him anymore, even if he is the PM. By him, I mean the one who owns the phone number, not the email address from the whois.

Yeah, I know this is a bump, but this was too big not to post.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=09-08-10&go=Go
If you type in the date on the itstartswiththeflu site in wikipedia without changing any of the formatting, the first result is "2009 flu pandemic in Malaysia". That's a damned strange coincidence.
Another interesting but not necessarily significant coincidence is that further down the search results is something related to one of the "World Wars".
Just an odd coincidence, it's probably nothing.

Hmm... seems a little too mysterious to pass up. I'm in, at least until we find out what exactly it is that we're in.
