If anyone tuned in to the 2 hour special last night, they know the new season has some real twists and turns in it. Although I have to say, one of those hours was just a '3 season recap' so it was just a single new episode for those who have been following the series.
Apparently the plot secrets behind the show are so closely guarded, the producers have asked actor Jorge Garcia (who plays Hurley) to close down his blog, concerned he would reveal something to the 'net.

'Lost' star Jorge Garcia has revealed that he abandoned a blog because bosses were concerned that he would reveal the show's secrets.
Fans of the hit US series have been kept in the dark about upcoming storylines and took to trawling the 34-year-old's online posts for information.

And of course, bloggers throughout the world are chattering about the new season.

There’s no shortage of media coverage surrounding tonight’s premiere. You would have to being living under the Black Rock to not know that Lost Season 4 debuts tonight. To tide us over for the rest of the day, since we are obviously too excited to focus on anything else, here’s a list of links to keep us busy while we wait. We thank all of our fellow Lost fans who sent some of these in.

I'm too tired to blog, so I'm posting this from my phone.

Awesome, super-emotional start to the season! I've got tons of new theories... could LOST actually be narrowing the plot to a logical conclusion?

Hi there. My name is Mac and this is the Lost Blog.

I figure a reintroduction is necessary because it's been more than eight months since the last new "Lost" episode. Good lord. Eight months.

They didn't want Garcia to tell his readers about the [REDACTED] or the [CENSORED]. It's just all too [REMOVED BY DHARMA INITIATIVE]...

At a Honolulu Youth Theatre charity event, they had members of the Lost cast perform dramatic readings for their next season of plays to raise funds for the programmes. Afterwards there was a reception to meet the cast members who were there. Hurley, Jiin, Desmond, Locke, Ben and Juliette all stuck around, the only person who didn't stay for photos was Jack, but he was there for a bit! It was very cool, they were all really nice. Hurley was joke-mocking my friend (in the photo) and I, he was really amiable.
