At http://www.ladygaga.com/bio/default.aspx look for "SRCH WAS HERE." in the second paragraph. It's a link to http://www.frappuccino.com/srchstore a photo of a Starbucks in NY City. Search for that location on the Starbucks.com Store locator (which is the link I provided).

Seriously! I was glancing too quickly to even notice it.

Does anyone know how busy the regular #unfiction IRC channel is during the day/week? Maybe we could all meet up in there for the 15 minutes or so it seems to take these things to get solved. I wouldn't want to overrun it with SRCH stuff if that would be unwelcome though. I just thought that would be an easy way to go about it since there's a web applet and everything built already.

Found something!
http://mystarbucksidea.force.com/ideaview?id=08750000000HTsLAAW

Yay! I won!!!

Go way to the bottom of that blog post...

http://blogs.starbucks.com/blogs/customer/archive/2011/05/24/players-find-srch-image-hidden-on-blog-post.aspx

ETA: The SRCH twitter had a link right to the final blog post, that's how I found it. But the "intended" was to find the three pictures named 5 25 and 11 in the facebook Photo Album pages of Starbucks. I found 5, which was a Starbucks logo, and 25, which was a light bulb. Didn't bother looking for 11.

Here's a link to 5:

Here's a link to 25:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150198061878011&set=a.10150198061608011.327630.19958618010&type=1

And here's the link to 11:

I totally forgot about it again and I can't get the cards to flip in either IE or Firefox now. I'm assuming that they're all gone though. I'll set an alarm for Wednesday!

I lost track of time and forgot it was an hour ago, but assumed that the last prize would be a trip or something and go fast. Sure enough, it's gone. Hopefully the blog post is up soon.

I don't even have the first idea where to start with this anyway. ANy thoughts while we wait for the solution?

Even confusing clues have meaning. An email could find the thing you want SRCH to be. Try mathematics. Or not at all. Facebook or Twitter could be Starbucks. Or maybe just a small little dot in the sky. Or something named com. But most likely what you need to find is here. You could even find seven. It might even be something your eyes already know. Staring at the next step. And your next, more challenging clue.
