I really think more ARGs need to have boys with no shirts on dancing.

I'm beginning to like these easter eggs now that I know they are easter eggs and not some really weird tracking program. The binary in the URL (0011101100101001) this time around translates to Wink


I seem to have missed something (been trying to catch up after the flu) what's all this about white boy dancing?

Look at the last Ian email (Pittsburgh down and bound) very closely..

Nisha's stalker...err, I mean Virgil, has called and left her another message.

And it looks like the date is slightly screwed up. The left hand date says April 7 at 11:03. The right hand date shows April 8.

Lurker, now poster.


Anyway, how is Virgil involved anyway? He must have a larger role than the current sub-plot he occupies now. . . Maybe we should ask Nisha for more information about Virgil, rather than warning her about him.

Virgil is simply a man who has been out of it for a while after the death of his wife, and who has rather than concentrate on himself, has obsessed over his lost wife and her interests (namely art). He even says he knows more about it than she ever did. This is how he met Nisha, and it would seem that rather than just become friends, he actually is putting her in the place his wife occupied. This could get dangerous. As far as his involvement with the rest goes, I'm not sure there is one. But if he obsesses any more than he is doing, it won't be long before he becomes caught up in it all.

Thanks! I never would have caught that if I didn't check the source code.

Actually, helpful tip: With most browsers (Internet Explorer possibly excepted, but I haven't used that in forever so I don't remember), you can usually keyboard-navigate to links on the page. For example, in most Mozilla-type browsers (Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox, etc.), you can tab through all the links, including hidden ones. In Safari, option-tab does this.

It's meant as an accesibility feature for the motion-impaired, but it does a good job on hidden links as well.

As for whether it's less labor-intensive than poring through the source, well, that's subjective. I'm a coder, but I despise HTML, so that should give you some insight on my point of view.
