Speaking of Time cube,  WWW.TIMECUBE.COM seems to have become some sort of link farm.  I forget who used to own it, but he made the UD crew look relatively sane and capable in comparison.  Anybody know what happened?

Weird: I just visited timecube.com, and the site is visible in all its glory—for, like, maybe 5 seconds, after which the "link farm" stuff takes over the browser window. If you're quick with your browser's "show page source" function, you can copy the text of the site and paste it into a word processing window. And, of course, the Internet Archive has preserved the site, graphics included.

Hmmm… the timecube.com source says, in (very small) part, <meta name=Generator content="Microsoft Word 11">. If Wikipedia is right about which version of Word was sold under which name, Word 11 is better known as "Office Word 2003".


It loaded ok for me earlier and I didn't see the link farm bit. It must be because I use NoScript (script blocker) and Ghostery so I didn't get bounced. My uneducated guess is someone gave it a hackey-poo (don't suppose Gene is very security minded and uses the same email he has pasted all over the site) and added a little script.
