Flypig, Webleon and Junyu started a very meaningful campaign: Reporting Beijing 2008 Olympic Games with a "080808" tag.

There are now already tons of tweets at twitter tagged with 080808. This event is even reported by Twitter.com officially! I am also enjoying the "opening ceremony" now. Almost everyone is talking about this great game now in China. And I can even see the light from Bird Nest ( I'm currently not far away from Bird Nest )

Just hope the world can be more and more beautiful!

Update: As the Chinese Delegation enters the stadium, the whole Bird Nest is crazy! People are shouting "中国加油" (Come on, China!)

FYI: The young boy besides Ming Yao, survived in the horrible earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan on May 15, 2008.

You are welcome to Beijing! - 北京欢迎你！
