Re: New Email and Photo
Dramatis personae

Lots of new stuff:

The newest entry on Lost & Found leads to the Alexa Webb Report. (ALEXA hiding something) Alexa has an email address for evidence regarding Amanda Palmer's disappearance: aptipsSPLATalexawebbreport.com

Alexa did a story featuring a fellow named Koosh Nall, Amanda's former manager at Monolith and Sky. (KOOSH carries blame) Monolith & Sky has a web site. (There's a private login!) And Koosh also has an email address: kooshSPLATmonolithandsky.com

Alexa did another story on Sam Forrester, a high school student who wants to become a professional video gamer. (SAM done badly)

Beth Hommel was Amanda's personal assistant, and she's also the one who called the police to report Amanda's disappearance. (BETH cant tell anyone)

So it looks as if that's half of our cast...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Attempting to following the "Archives" link on Alexa's site leads to a very strange 404 page. First, it's not the 404 page you get if you actually go to a nonexistent page. Second, the message is formatted very strangely, don't you think? All that peculiar white space?

Count the spaces between the word clusters, and you get 12-9-1-18: LIAR.

buzzd by the Stranger

I got buzzd by the stranger early this morning. He said, "I like crossroads and doorways." That was all.

Buzz

I singed up for Buzzd and find I have six friends (never knew I was so popular):

Melody Dean (as in Melody: friend, I'm assuming)
Alexa Webb (of the Alexa Webb Report)
Joie De Vivre Salon
The Stranger
Amanda Palmer
Jack Fox (of WKAP)

After a quick Google search of Melody Dean, I came across a MySpace account for her.

She has a few friends, including a Calliope (Knows Tricks), whose profile links to Joie de Vivre Salon (one of the names on Buzzd). A few interesting things there, including a 'hidden' page with another private login...

Also, Alexa Webb has a Twitter feed. And is really getting into the eco-friendly lifestyle, apparently...

I looked at Caliope's my space profile and I found Beth (can't tell anyone) profile, she says she's a fotographer and she works for Amanda Palmer:

Re: Buzz
Re: Joie de Vivre Salon

The five women who run the Salon appear to be five of the nine muses: Clio (history), Calliope (epic poetry), Polyhymnia (song), Melpomene (tragedy), and Erato (erotic poetry).

The "eyes" page is worth a closer look.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The titles of the five images are a story fragment:

"'It's not a good idea,' said Clio. But Calliope wouldn't listen. She was inspired. 'It's time to be women of our words,' Polly agreed. 'Yes! It will be a beautiful tragedy,' Mel said. E, however, said nothing, and only smiled."

The five file names tell a bit more:

"but there was one thing they all agreed on- it was an exquisite dream"

What's this Buzzd thing? How do I sign up?

Has anyone tried the IM yet? The website lists a screenname, wkapfm. I added it to my AIM but haven't sent a message yet.

Not to derail, but I think most of us on this thread are DD fans, so how do you all feel about the breakup? I was pretty sad but I totally saw it coming. Hope they'll get back together and make some music eventually.

What is it? Or how is it relevant? If you go to WKAP-FM and click on the depressed radio button you get a message from someone who wants to talk. It links to his Buzzd profile. As far as what Buzzd is? It looks like Yet Another Locational Twitter service like Dodgeball and BrightKite and so on. I have yet to sign up, myself, as the last thing I need is another such service vying for my attention.
