Talk about it here.
The home page of the GEOCOMTEX website was the first feature exclusively published on 30 April 2005[1] by the BBC webteam to coincide with the broadcast of Dalek. This feature was framed as the the in-universe home page for Geocomtex's website.
The page was given an overhaul at some point between 15 June 2006[2] and 1 July 2006,[3] complete with a new logo and illustrations.
