It's way past the season for the lion the witch and the wardrobe movie but I just felt like it. And somehow, for the first time in sixteen years, I feel like supporting the white witch so that it will be always winter and never christmas day in hong kong. While I'll never say that I'm not in the mood to celebrate, I just figured out that it would be nice to have a lengthened christmas holiday. If 22 Dec could last for two weeks or so (I hope I'm not talking in riddles) every student, especially us form fivers, would have much more time to work as well as relax.

But anyhow, have a very Merry Christmas =]

"You control the media now, and the world will never be the same"

The editors at Time decided to go with "You" for the person of the year. Quite an interesting choice. I spent yesterday afternoon reading the entire magazine from the first page to the last - something I last did when they made the "Time 100" issue (was that in May?). Web 2.0 is definitely amazing in the way it connects the dots of society and makes us live in a small, small world. Ten years ago only a handful envisioned the influence of Wikipedia or Facebook on our lives. Yet now with just a few clicks of the mouse we know what's going on in Istanbul or Reykjavik.

And while reading it I suddenly came up with the weird idea that my next door neighbour owns a blog which has ten thousand hits a day. He might be a Youtuber whose videos have been viewed by at least one person from each of the 193+ countries in the world. Or maybe he has a million friends on Myspace. Or perhaps he even owns a flourishing online business that everybody except me has heard about.

Most likely a figment of my imagination, but mind you - it's not entirely impossible!
