Did you have one before or did you delete your old one? You could always sign a new one up. I'm out due to geography but if anything's ever going down in Geneva, that's one I can definitely get to.

Never had one. And I'm not going to go to the trouble of setting one up (real or fake info) for this.

I totally agree, especially with FB's attitude to (lack of) privacy.

It's a shame that a SL in-game site hasn't been used.

 		 Re: Lewis Hamilton: Secret Life
[quote="Giskard"]So, someone pointed me to [url=http://www.secretlewis.com]www.secretlewis.com[/url], which is a site that

a) has something to do with British Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton and
b) is somehow connected to Reebok (where Hamilton [url=http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/motorsport/1160141/Lewis-Hamilton-has-tied-up-a-Reebok-sponsorship-deal.html]signed a huge sponsorship deal[/url]) and
c) has a countdown (ARG radar goes bleep ;) )

Being the huge F1 fan that I am, and McLaren (Hamilton's team) being one of my fav teams, the site kinda piqued my interest. There's a video showing Hamilton conducting some kind of high-tech breaking and entering, helped along by a pretty girl with a headset.

Some Googling leads to the same video on [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrVJF9Nlw-Y]Youtube[/url] and [url=http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc99gb_lewis-hamilton-secret-life_sport]Daily Motion[/url], both labeled as follows:

Lewis Hamilton Lewis Hamilton Reebok [b]ARG[/b] Game [b]Alternate Reality Game[/b] Secret Lewis Secret Life Teaser Secret (my emphasis)

Interesting... I guess we'll have to wait until March 10th for the countdown to be done. The site also links to a [url=http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc99gb_lewis-hamilton-secret-life_sport]Twitter account[/url], but nothing too exciting there.[/quote]

 		New blog post by Anna about a live event in Birmingham on Saturday.

Anna wrote:
It's Birmingham!

27 May, 2010
The technician has been in touch. The handover will take place somewhere in central Birmingham on Saturday after 12 noon, local time. He will only reveal his exact location to those people who actually collect a microchip from one of the pick-up points.

I'm using my connections to get microchips to a network of locations around Birmingham, so you can pick one up and deliver it as fast as possible.

Those pick-up points are yet to be confirmed – setting this up securely is a very delicate business. You'll need to watch this site, the Facebook group, and @SecretLewis very carefully, because I'll post the details of the pick-up points here on Saturday morning at 11am, just an hour before the technician is in place for the handover.

Spread the word. Be ready. You will be rewarded.
Sounds like having a facebook account is not a requirement.

 		I hope someone following this is in Birmingham then. Nobody here (far as I know) is.

Oh! Bless you. Smile

I'm very happy you won because I thought the tune you wrote was simply excellent; I thought the only thing letting it down was that it had no lyrics. It turns out that that was perfect for Brian. Wink

 		Looking at the people signed up on Facebook, as far as I can see, there's one person near Birmingham only. Not sure if I'm prepared to take a day trip and spend money on getting there from London...which would mean I'd miss the F1 Qualifying Wink

Bar Epernay, The Mailbox

Read the blog post for details - you have to use the secret codeword "Lewis 500".

 		I can see why not London though, after all I've already gotten something from this and they likely want to spread the wealth, as such. I guess they thought we could pull off Birmingham like we did Kuala Lumpur.
