Subject: HOT HOT HOT! New viral marketing ads have possible SPOILERS

Dunno if this is part of a new "Lost Experience" or just fun viral marketing for the show, but here's what I got:

Have you seen the new "Fly Oceanic" TV ad? Keep your eye peeled to ABC. The ad contains a website www.flyoceanic.com. If you go there, you see the ad - keep watching - it's "hacked" halfway through with a message. The message ends with another website "www.find815.com".

If you go to it, you'll find tons of info on an interactive site: Click on these items: the first laptop, the notebook, the cellphone, the camera, and the two "tapes" in front of the second computer monitor. Among the goodies you'll get:

The Laptop: has videos and emails with clues, like --
a boat called The Christiane", says it's looking for The Black Rock and gives some background on the Black Rock which ties it to the Hanso Foundation. (watch for the ship to be a major clue). It also mentions an Oscar Talbot, a connection to the diomand trade, hints about the island's location (The Sunda Trench - another "Bermuda Triange" type place of lost ships and planes), a "Sam Thomas" who is terminated from Oceanic Air for an unknown reason who also picks up an anamolous transmission from Amelia Aerhardt (sp).

The Notebook
- has manifest entries about several of the Lostaways.

The Cellphone
- has voicemail messages from "Mum" to Sam.

The Tapes (2 of them) (Sam's video diary)
- Tape 1 reveals Sam's backstory, reveals the Christiane as a salvage boat looking for the Black Rock.
- reveals the Christiane's mission and a connection to flight 815, and reveals more about Sam and his search for his fiance Sonya, who was a flight attendant on 815.

The Camera
- reveals that Sam goes to Sea to search for Sonya, where he is, and his navigational path. Also, discusses an email from a "Maxwell Group" with "some mysterious numbers" on it.

A link on the right titled "Story So Far" puts it all together in scenes that look like they were filmed for the show and might (maybe) be SPOILERS or at least foilers. PLUS a fun game helping "Sam" integrate a circuit board, a video of the Christiane at sea, (note the 1970s style equipment like the radio!) with an audio of a transmission about Amelia's disappearance.

Man, they put a lot of work into this! Tres cool - check it out!



Good good stuff and lots of fun.

Look at the bottom of the "Find815" site and click on "forum" - you'll be taken to a message board with possible spoiler discussion. Looks like it's officially tied to the ABC Lost site.

Have fun :)

If you haven't been reading the Lost blog over at Zap2It, then you really should :) http://blog.zap2it.com/lost/

My own belief is that since we know the boat off shore isn't Penny's boat...


*possible spoiler space - god it's wierd writing that again!*









... The Christine is Penny's boat.
