Ya right :-)
My bet though is it’s the directory to the eCommerce module dev demo.

Edit-Add1: This part (url) gets you a Google Map of the EE staff.
Edit-Add2: The above is just a redirect. You can back-off the url and still get it. So, dead-end. It’s just a fancy 404 I’ll bet. Cute Paulie.
Edit-Add3: The TZ is probably the timezone, -8 is the west coast I believe. Probably something to do with Paul as he’s the eCommerce dev and in Portland (-8). :-)
Edit-Add4: The first part looks like hash code.

Ok, Last comment…I’ll bet the first part is a hash of the userName/password to get into the directory (demo) in the second part. Then I’ll bet that if you get in there, the free eCommerce module is already in your shopping cart as the logged in user.

The top line is the text description.  The second line is the coordinates for the google map location.

The TZ is the time zone.

Not sure what the third line is.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr;=&q=2^3&btnG=Search

Ok PXLated already had that,uhm.
I’m going for the wheel of fortune approach and blurt out ,ExpressionEngine 1.5 will be released 8 ‘o’clock somewhere
in the U.S. by a developer from Pmachine’s Staff.

Oh it also means Pmachine apparently has an e-commerce module prepared.

pasted together leads you to the google map of the Pmachine Staff members around the States but it won’t be enough if I want to graduate I know. OK, sorry, I’m leaving…

A geeky puzzle for a “business” product. Why not a business puzzle so us normal folks would have a chance?

I’m coming back from a major headache… This man must be related to the great Da Vinci in person and I’ll second PXlated for a hint. I think we, EE mortals, deserve recognition for our bravery.

OK, do not try posting the solution here.  Once you figure the entire puzzle out, it should be fairly obvious what you need to do with the full solution.  And no one has come that close yet, not even on the pMachine Team.

Well, you got one part of it, at the very least.  The puzzle has two components.  Solving each piece, and then combining them to do something.  I will start giving clues when I feel enough people have tried their hand at it.

Oh, and only the first person to solve it wins the prize, so I guess this is a bit of a competition.
