Very good article over at BuddyTV. Someone finally took the time to sit down and explain this entire "Lost Experience" online game that's been going on all summer long. Well it's officially over and based on everything I've read and the little effort I put into "playing along", the general consensus seems to be that the whole entire thing sucked big time.

There were all those video clips from the Hanso Exposed website, that book Bad Twin, plus there was cell phone content too... right? I'm sure I'm missing other aspects. Too much to keep up with if you ask me but if you didn't have the time to stay current (did anyone?), that link above gives a decent synopsis of the whole thing including the meaning behind the numbers. It's all pretty disappointing and seems to lack the creativity that drives the show. Fortunately, it's completely separate from the series and now that it's concluded we can just forget that the "Lost Experience" ever existed. The third season of Lost premieres on October 4.

Some cool stuff here. For those of you that have been paying attention all summer to the various things that make up "The Lost Experience," then here's something for you. It's from the HansoExposed website which I believe went live a few months ago. If you take the time to weed through the whole site, it's loaded with video clips similar to all the orientation videos that Jack and his fellow Losties have been watching in the hatches. The video after the jump combines 53 different fragments from the site into one semi-cohesive clip that clocks in at over four minutes. It's nothing too revolutionary but it does give a face to Alvar Hanso as well as an explanation of why The DHARMA Initiative was created. The final minute is the most interesting part. I'm curious to hear everyone's take on it.
