The current Seven Wonders of the World are outdated. The search is on for defining the New 7 Wonders of the World. The initiative started in 2000. Experts considered the 77 sites with the highest number of votes and shortlisted 21 finalists on January 1, 2006.

After a final 18 months of voting by the global public, the New 7 Wonders of the World will be announced during the Official Declaration ceremony in Lisbon, Portugal on Saturday, July 7, 2007 or 07.07.07.

The final year of the campaign will be marked with a World Tour visiting all 21 finalist wonders and a TV series to be produced by the world’s leading television production company Endemol. See the N7W World Tour Calendar.

Indians might want to vote for the Taj Mahal in Agra, India. The world tour reaches Taj Mahal on December 5, 2006. There are some cool Taj Mahal N7W products at their Cafepress online shop to show your pride and spread the word.

If you are late to know this, let me tell you, the recent article at WebProNews stating it a rumor is now real. The news came from the New York Times and here is what it has to say:

A profitless Web site started by three 20-somethings after a late-night dinner party is sold for more than a billion, instantly turning dozens of its employees into paper millionaires. It sounds like a tale from the late 1990s dot-com bubble, but it happened Monday.

Google, the online search company, agreed Monday to pay $1.65 billion in stock for the Web site that came out of that party — YouTube, the video-sharing phenomenon that is the darling of an Internet resurgence known as Web 2.0.

YouTube, founded in February 2005, had been coveted by virtually every big media and technology company as they seek to tap into a new generation of consumers who are viewing 100 million short videos on the site every day.
