An early start...
On April 16 ,2008 at around 9:00 am, I saw an ad for this site.

http://www.whathappenedinpiedmont.com/

The ad was shot ala camcorder.

It opens a dog walking down a street.

The street is revealed to be littered with bodies[?].

The page does not appear to have alot.

 		Is anyone else able to read the comments on the blog page? I can't access them at all and the comment count keeps going up.

OK, so it was a TV commercial -- that's what I was asking. Looks like Andrew has a facebook account (hasn't accepted me as a friend yet) and a twitter account. Hard to say what's going on, but it looks pretty well put together so far.

Yeah I am seeing some of them now. It still seems sort of buggy as to which comments are being shown, as one that I did see shortly after my post isn't there now.

I fired off an email to Andrew asking for more info on Piedmont since there is nothing that comes up on google or google maps. I hinted that depending on where it was in Utah, I may have a friend willing to drive to check it out (even though no such friend exists).

 		From looking over the source code over the last little while, it seems like they are still working on the site a bit. Some of the code has changed a couple of times.

[Meta] I think the bigspaceship bit is the company that designed the game for A&E, since if you go to the About tab and then the clients list here http://www.bigspaceship.com/, you will see a lot of broadcasting companies, one of which being ABC, the parent company to A&E.[/meta]

 		You are probably right....I just didn't want to overlook anything.

Some of the OOG comments on the site are cracking me up... Laughing

Edit: All of the OOG comments are "disappearing".....
