“The Amazing Spider-Man” Viral Begins Twitter Scavenger Hunts Caleb Hamilton, February 10, 2012March 21, 2012 When the theatrical trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man earlier this week, a hidden message was spotted toward the end. When plugged into a web address, a site was discovered with six video screens filled with static and the new film’s logo. Nobody had any clue what this was for…until tonight.

Check out what I found!In the newspaper of the 3° pic, there is something odd with the text in the black square. If you try to read it (there is a better photo in http://twitter.com/dag_kurt/status/168122132021256193/photo/1 ), you’ll see that the first characters spell “slashprepare”.So, obviously the clue takes you to http://markofthespider-man.com/prepare. The page shows a list of steps you have to somehow follow in markofthespider-man.com (counting from left to right and from up to down, the steps are 1-6-4-2-5-3-2-4-5-3-2-1-6-3-6-2-1-4-2-5).And then, when you click the TV-like squares in the homepage, it shows you whatever the hell is in my pic. Every square is an american city (Atlanta, Denver, LA, NYC, Phoenix & Seattle) with a different countdown pointing into February 13… whatever it means.I have no clue about what comes next, but it’s still something, ain’t it? 😉
