Topic: xkcd- TIME

It started a week ago.

On Monday, March 25th, 2013, the web comic xkcd posted a simple picture of two people on a beach, with the title of Time. The alternate caption said, "wait for it."

http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130328030841/xkcd-time/images/thumb/7/76/5614c47bc2f28b730a360f796cc2993ba04e1f09db0aa3f325e476338777a9c4.png/330px-5614c47bc2f28b730a360f796cc2993ba04e1f09db0aa3f325e476338777a9c4.png

People did.

Every half hour, the picture updated, forming an animated story. In the forum, people speculated on what was happening, where it would go.

It is still going on. This one individual comic now has its own wiki, a new religion has formed in the forum, already with its own splinter sect, and nobody has any idea how long this could go.

Come join the fun. You can see an animation of all the previous images, with each new one automatically added, HERE

Re: xkcd- TIME

This seems like the sort of thing he'd do to end the comic. Then again, that's what I thought about his Click and Drag thing and he kept going after that.
