Check this out! This is genius!

I'm not totally sure whether this should go here or Sports & Entertainment. Up to you mods.

This is some genius shit. From a site of a webcomic I found a link to a page called I Love Bees (link later). When you go there, don't worry - you won't get infected with a virus or any other type of malicious shit. Although you might think the site is definitely affected. So don't worry, no danger there. Here's the link. http://www.ilovebees.com

Now, it looks like a totally normal amateur site about beekeeping. (Except for the obvious part.) If you explore the site, you'll see that whatever has affected the site is turning everything into gibberish and corrupting graphics. At the site is also a link to the site creators weblog. At the blog the site owner is aware of the problem at the site, but doesn't know what the hell it is. Other people who post there don't know what the hell it is either.

I found other sites where people have investigated the same phenomena at ILoveBees.com and some people made a cool discovery as to what is in question here.

Switch topics for a minute. You might have heard of game developer team Bungie. You most likely know their hit game Halo. Halo 2 is in the making now and should be released shortly.

I'm no expert on Halo or the storyline, so bare with me. In the Halo universe there is a hostile alien race called the Covenant. They have developed an AI that works for them or leads them or something, I don't know. Like I said, I'm no Halo expert. Well, in the storyline of Halo 2 the aliens apparently find Earth and you have to stop their assault on our planet and save the human race and bla bla bla. The aliens apparently find us after their AI infiltrates Earth's computers.

So what does ILoveBees.com have to do with this shit?

The geeks who ivestigated this thing at ILoveBees.com (I'm talking looking at the sourcecodes and shit) found out that as time goes by, some type of plotline developes in the sourcecode or something like that. I really don't understand all the technical stuff. The plot and dialogue are constructed piece by piece, and it doesn't develop chronologically. Apparently, what's hit ILoveBees.com is the Covenant AI from the Halo games. Like I said, the aliens find Earth after the AI gets into Earths computers. So basically, it's all an advertisement for a videogame. But what an ingenius advertisement! It ties in the games storyline with real life.

Some guy posted on another site that the Halo 2 trailer is playing in some selected movie theaters among the previews. At the end of the trailer, as usual for X-Box games, the X-Box logo is shown with www.xbox.com written under it. But right before the trailer ends the address changes to www.ilovebees.com for just a second.

What's so amazing about this? The fact that it all looks so real and people didn't have any idea what's hit the site. I don't know if ILoveBees.com and the creator of that site really exist or are they just figments of imagiantion, but it's definately a cool mystery they've come up with.

I'm sure this all didn't sound exciting at all when I described it here, but it definately was cool. I thought "WTF is this" when I first saw the site. Then I viewed the weblog, and it all looked real. How the site creator didn't know what the hell was going on and how there were hundreds of people posting there, offering support and some trying to look into the phenomena and figure out what the hell it is, not a single one getting it. Some did manage to find out that the thing is actually coded as some sort of hack, but didn't know what it was trying to do. The site creator reported how her e-mails had all vanished and how she couldn't send or recieve any messages in her e-mail. Then somebody realized how the AI developed some sort of plotline or something that was attached to the Covenant from the Halo games.

This is what I call innovative advertising. Very cool. Fuck the game though, I ain't interested.

[Montana00]

Wait a minute lemme get this straight.....

the website ilovebees.com is supposed to make you think that its being infected by a virus, while your visiting it? If so that has got to be the worst attempt to make me think a virus is running.

Ok....the people who created halo made this website to get halo nerds happy about halo? wtf, they have nothing in common.
