Happy New Year

The Land of Oz is already in 2008. Too bad they ring in the new year with a controversy over government censorship. Good intentions aside, letting Big Brother grow on people is never a good idea. Governments can not, and should not take over the family’s responsibility. It’s a slippery road… governments by their very nature tend to expand: porn filtering today, political views tomorrow – we know where it leads.

If you are a parent, sister, brother, uncle, aunt, YOU (and not the government) have the joy and responsibility of bringing the children to a safe and better world. That’s my parting thought for 2007, and I wish you a prosperous, peaceful, Happy New Year with a shot of the NYE fireworks from the beautiful city of Sydney:

Update: enjoy this video of the Sydney NYE 2007/08 Fireworks (it’s a two-part clip, please wait a few seconds at the end of the first):

  1. Zoli – are you in my hemisphere at the moment? It’s 2008 in New Zealand too!

  2. Oh, no, I am in California, it’s sunny and still 2007:-)

    The reason I picked Sydney is that they have the world’s best fireworks – or so I think.

    Happy New Year!

  3. Zoli,

    Web 2.0 and beyond will make it much more difficult for government to intervene on levels they once were capable of.

    At the end of the day it becomes each of our responsibilites to make the world a safer and better place. With technological advances on the rise, I think we can expect change and reform for the better in the United States. But again, this will ultimately be determined by YOU, ME and everyone else hoping to make the world a better place for our future generations to come.

    On another note, I would love to see that spectacular firework show in Sydney one day. Talk about lighting up the sky!

    Happy New Year!
