Sunday, May 29: The A.D.D. Detective
|
DARK KNIGHT by Leigh Lundin Just over a week ago, Warner Bros. launched The Dark Knight Rises web site, the latest update of our old Detective Comics friend, Batman. The odd thing is that except for a sort of chant, the web site appears entirely black. Clever fans figured out the soundtrack isn’t merely a chant– it’s a code that translates into a hash tag: #TheFireRises. Tweeting the hash tag causes the image to fill in… slowly, slowly, revealing the latest super-villain, Bane.

Another holiday weekend visiting Sharon and Steve, another holiday weekend with the internet down. Sharon tells me the community engaged an attorney to investigate breaking the contract with their ISP.
It’s not fun; many St. Cloud residents depend upon the internet to make a living. The Central Florida Business Incubator may be affected, too. As for me, desperately trying to ready the column was desperately trying.
Thanks for the iPod, Sharon. We return you to the Indianapolis 500.
You are responsible for my accelerated heart-rate. The unexpected sound track gave me a such a start!
Clever use of the chant/code to make folk work for their reward (not that I’m a Batman fan).
Enjoyed the column’s appropriately atmospheric appearance.
