The next Blog Off will take place on 19 October. We’ve been thinking a lot about pasts and futures lately.
We’re at the end of a decade that started with a lot of fear of collapse at the hands of the Y2K bug and is ending in the Great Recession. We’ve seen 9/11, a tsunami and… So what’s the good news for this decade? As we get ready to say goodbye to the first decade of the second millennium, is there a reason to look ahead? In looking back, what happened in the current decade that made it all worth it? Is there cheer to be had?
