Eon8 was a mysterious website which had multiple pages including one of a world map with red dots near populated areas, a page which included a list of "unapproved referrers" of which the CIA and Military were included on! Several parts of the website were also password protected, if one were to try to put in a password it would say "Illegal action recorded", and most of all, a timer that was counting down to July 1st, 2006 at 12:00. There was also strange bits of code strewn throughout the page, and odd references such as "Commence project (randomnameand numbers", "Project status: Imminent", and long strings of random numbers more of which appeared when highlighted. There is also an Eon5, which simply shows a mysterious and eerie airvent, which was unrelated, but added to the chaos. This strange site was thought to be many things, a sick marketing ploy, a hoax, a cyber-terrorism site, or a site similar to "ILOVEBEES" or "Neurocam". This site was overhyped, and caused mass paranoia over the internet, but turned out to be nothing more than a social experiment. When the counter reached zero, the server experienced a meltdown, likely due to the massive amount of people viewing the page. The site's owner issued an explanation saying that it was just a social experiment, and that people shouldn't get so worked up about something which doesn't even say exactly what it is. In conclusion, everyone got pwned by a guy named Mike from Florida. Much of people's theories and further investigation (frankly ominous and harrowing theories)can easily be found.
