Visual Dimension
December; and the year 2010 are quickly coming to a close. An absolutely fantastic year for events held around the globe. We saw some of the biggest attendance events [World Cup Soccer, the NFL’s Super Bowl, and the Winter Olympics up in Vancouver] all successfully held without terrorist attack or similar disaster. And despite tremendous economic hardships we saw some events (The Red Bull Air Race in New York and the Albuquerque Balloon Festival) report near records in attendance. There were literally hundreds of new and smaller events [Harbin Ice Festival, World Ice Golf Championships, and The International Pillow Fight Day] all gaining in recognition and popularity. Perhaps Know2Go has played some small [yet growing] important part in the success of every event we cover. We look forward to the New Year with excited anticipation as “We Bring World Events” to YOU.
Decade; the first ten years of the century has few days remaining before its completion. In reality we’re about 3,635 days (plus or minus a few leap years) into the 21st Century. There’s been plenty for historians to study and plenty of comparisons yet made (expect a summary in various publications and newsprint sometime after the holidays. Like it or not, we’re making great progress toward a One World civilization and many would argue the internet is playing a tremendous role in bringing us all closer together as a civilization. With today’s smart phone technology and over 5 billion of the world’s population now carrying a “Personal Communicator” the gap will continue to close, crossing even the tightest of barriers and borders {Cuba + North Korea}. And speaking of history, one of the biggest (and perhaps least known) features of the Know2Go website is the option to include historical events. To access this feature, simply log in and then click the box found to the right of your “Speed Search” box. This can be most helpful when looking at bi-annual and quadrennial events such as next year’s World Cup Rugby challenge held in New Zealand or the Summer Olympics taking place in Great Britain.
Dimension; a simple measurement of an object’s length, width, and thickness. Stay tuned for great things from your friends at Know2Go as our dimensions expand. 2011 will include a roll out of mobile phone apps, great news if you have a [Android and Blackberry] smart phone. We have our events team working on the final stages of the largest and most comprehensive listing of events, which will be offered in 5 different languages. With help from our active membership group we will introduce video {3D?} coverage of various events and a few more exciting goodies. We look forward to having both your participation and your feedback ~ with a promise to read all that’s submitted.
