Yikes!  Here's a tiny url for everyone:

Funny thing is it wasn't that long ago that I was watching a technology show that featured Trent Reznor and Trent had never seen or used the web prior to that show.  They had to show him a hyperlink and what it did, etc.  He kind of struck me as a computer novice.

But just a year or two later he had hired a film crew to record his shows with five or six cameras and had managed to create and sell his own DVD using Final Cut.  I guess he's a quick study.

Reznor adopts unusual Web campaign for new album

NEW YORK (Billboard) - Trent Reznor could have just given a few
interviews to explain Nine Inch Nails' new album, "Year Zero." But
instead, he's using a multifaceted Internet scavenger hunt, and in
some cases, his own rabid fans, to help gradually build the story of
the project.

Neither Reznor, his management nor representatives at his Interscope
label would speak to Billboard about the campaign, which has
encompassed everything from cryptic phrases on T-shirts to Orwellian
Web sites to MP3s found on USB drives in bathrooms at NIN concerts.
But a source with knowledge of the project says Reznor may very well
perceive it all not as a marketing campaign, but as "a new
entertainment form."
