I'm posting - like in the Cloverfield times - in my blog mostly about Super 8. Under this label: http://merzmensch.blogspot.com/search/label/Super8

Sorry, people, it's in German, buit you can read it with google translate

And I will also report in my ARG-videopodcast Kosmocast about Super 8, with English subtitles, which I hope to post today or tomorrow.

potential Facebook page???

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Super-8/119732268054336

*edit* Might have been it or a fake as it's no longer there. Perhaps they got a takedown notice?

This fanpage was available, and it was page, build by fans. Why it's offline, I don't know. A fan page brought down?..

The way everything was written though was very official except maybe JJ's goofy face instead of a simple Super 8 logo or what have you.

However now it is gone but I did find JJ's goofy face in a group now instead so they may have been told to shut down and restart as an actual fan page.

I'll edit the original post in this thread as useful sites are added. I'm adding http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=10450&page=39 to the list.

ETA: Maybe a mod can sticky this thread for us Smile

Hi again,

I know, I spam you people with all the stuff,
but I'm making an ARG video podcast "Kosmocast", and in the actual episode I tell about everything we knew about Super 8 right now. Check it out. I tried to do some visualisations to better show the discoveries.

Well let's see how many separate threads we'll end up getting. If we mirror Cloverfield in numbers then I'll sticky it with a huge SPOILER tag. Smile

You are missing some key information: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=703938#703938

I will NOT mention the supposed fan sites here.
However, one of the creators has become paralyzed, and the other has gone missing. (In real life situations).
Quote:
In 1976, DEC decided to extend the PDP-11 architecture to 32 bits, creating its first 32-bit minicomputer, referred to as a super-mini.

Thanks. This thread is mostly for a reference to any websites that could be referenced often and not necessarily a full documentation of every website that's been referenced so far.

I did add the wikipedia for DEC link to the big list, though. Some may want to refer back to it from time to time.
