This is kind of interesting. Since most of the 7 wonders of the ancient world are no longer in existence, a swiss group has decided to do an internet vote to determine the current 7 wonders of the world. They call it the 'new 7 wonders'. The website requires registration to vote, and the intent obviously involves eventual marketing of books, travel, and merchandise, but it's kinda neat anyway. My seven choices (out of the 21 finalists)?
The Colosseum
Easter Island Statues
The Great Wall of China
Machu Picchu
Petra
Pyramids of Giza
Stonehenge
The only problem is that a few of the sites in the final round aren't really wonders. For instance, the Eiffel Tower, and the Statue of Liberty - interesting? yes. Wonders of the World? No.
PS: Wow these guys are reall nuts about IP stuff. Couldn't find a logo image from their site to use in my blog.
