While the puzzle was going on, the only part of the website open was a single page that contained the puzzle. Sometimes there was another page accessible after filling out a login form.

[edit] Blog
Main article: Myst: The Motion Picture Production Journal
The blog talks about many topics, including the script and the creators' private lives. Readers are encouraged to post comments, though they have been disabled for two posts. Blog entries are written often, but many of them are from before 2008. This is because the entries have been written since 1994, and they are being released slowly.
[edit] Getting news
The website has a variety of RSS feeds. One is based on the order in which the entries are released, so if there is an entry from 2000 it will show up at the top of the list. If an entry is updated, it will jump to the top too. The second feed lists the entries by when they were written. This is good for finding newly-written entries, but not ones from a while ago, because they will never appear on the list. There is also a comment feed listing readers' comments. A "What's New" page was opened, which lists the entries the same way as the first feed, but without actually using a feed.
[edit] Media
Things besides text are in the blog. Entries with videos, images, or downloads are marked with the appropriate tag. A section of the menu on the left of the page lists these media categories. As of June 6, there are two videos, fifty images, and four PDFs.
