This Smithsonian article:

http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/who-was-poe-toaster-we-still-have-no-idea-180961820/

... gives a summary overview of the original Poe Toaster phenomenon (which ended circa 2009), and it mentions that effective this year a new (non-anonymous; non-mysterious) tradition is beginning.
