Mysterium 2007

Scraper, one of the members of the Mysterium committee, has posted this information about Mysterium 2007:

!shorah

We are pleased to announce that Mysterium 2007 will be held the weekend of
July 20 - 22. This is especially exciting this year because it falls on the
weekend before Comic Con, allowing interested people to stay longer after
Mysterium and attend both events should they choose.

Mysterium is an annual gathering of fans of Uru and the Myst series. Many
Mysterium attendees are members of online communities centered around the
games. They have grown to be friends online, and Mysterium gives them a
chance to meet face to face.

We sincerely hope that everyone can attend this gathering!

P.S. There is no connection between Mysterium and Comic Con. The Mysterium
Committee neither endorses nor opposes Comic Con.

Random Site of the Week, Feb. 5

This week's random site is not so random, really, but a bit of shameless self-promotion.

The Myst Embassy has put together a YouTube playlist of fan created videos.

You'll find machinema videos here from prolific fans like Kam, Marten, Vortmax, Wutt Evah as well as others. You'll even find the winner from the Myst Embassy's Myst Trailer contest from last year. Check them out, make comments and let me know if I've missed any!
