I am 99.999% sure this is Portal related.
1) Chell (Main character of Portal)
2) "She keeps lying, the program." Totally GlaDOS.
I'll toss it in there for ya. With full credit of course!

Agreed, this totally looks like Portal. I'm definitely in on this one, if only to continue feeding my Portal addiction.

I was hoping for a Portal ARG back when that mysterious update came out. I hope this actually turns out, unlike the other one!

Dunno... This just doesn't feel the same as the past experiences.
Why not? There's no humor in it! All the past promotions, even for the original (the Aperture Science website) was riddled with humor and satire. This... Not.

I dunno, I found a few giggles intertwined in the two paragraphs

Meh, It's well written, but I didn't get any giggles.
I'll keep reading and see where this goes...

It seems page three is out. Things might be piecing together.
http://pageonetwentynine.blogspot.com/2010/06/page-3.html
and something else on the main page...

Now that's interesting... and I giggled a bit through it. For the footnote:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The name of the image is Don't Follow. And EAST TO SEA is hidden in the Space message. Another site maybe? I haven't had time to look.

Well, it's definitely Portal-related ("I'm so GLaD I have time now..." and the crowbar with GF, aka a certain disgruntled employee of Black Mesa), but I agree with Nighthawk about the humor thing. Everything I've experienced in or about Portal has been loaded with blatant tongue-in-cheek humor. I'm thinking that this is probably a grassroots game made by a Portal fan. Exciting!
[/META]
As for "East to Sea," I've been unable to uncover anything obviously related to this. The only thing I've come across so far in my short time searching is that the Sea of Japan is also known as the East Sea, but I'm not sure that this is particularly relevant either. I'll update if I come across anything.

I see a cake reference, too and that's no lie.
EASTTOSEA for some reason makes me think of E2C or possible E3

Not gonna lie, this seems terrible.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Sorry. I have been very vague because I am... a little stressed out.
Do you know how complicated it is to lose your father, not knowing where he's been brought to?
The tool was a crowbar, with GF carved onto the handle.
I will send a scan of the paper soon, I don't get it.
Father must be going insane. I'm sure there will be room in the nearby institute once he found.
If you didn't already know, my name is Chell.
Now back to business, Daddy worked a successful company, and he takes credit for the shower Curtain.
Today was going to be his birthday, but he went missing. I had even made him a chocolate cake.
I am sure he's FINE. Tomorrow I will check Daddy's computer, but for now I'll rest.
I'm so GLaD I have time now......wasting.....
a CROWBAR with a GF carved it it? really?... Thats blatantly Gordon Freeman. and then "I'm so GLaD" Guys, this just seems way too simple minded to me, just my opinion.
