It's a spinning, blinking design made of circles, and it talks in a circus-clown voice. Nothing on the page appears to do anything else. Is this supposed to be the new hamsterdance? Am I missing something here?

If by new you mean 'just as old as', yes.

I don't find ZomboCom or this post linking to it at all funny. Furthermore, I doubt even user zombo developed Zombo.com or that he/it is a YC applicant. I saw this site many months ago and it hasn't changed a bit. These sort of time-wasters can damage goodwill on this forum. Good for April 1 and that's about it.

I am just not as turned on by sarcasm as many would like..

Damn I should tell one of my former co-workers at Western Electric => ATT => Lucent Microelectronics => Agere that you're using his former email handle as your site name. I'm sure he would get a kick out of it.

It's not obvious what the hell Zombo.com is. Visual design is clean and uncluttered on the splash page, the voice over is a little freaky makes me think of some African dictator, perhaps Idi Amin. I cant say anything about the rest of the site because I cant get past the splash page. Kudos for the candy colored "hypno" throbber, I'm sure it will be a hit with the Mary Jane and Dancing Bears crowds.
