One day in May, two years back, MA_pedia, Webster Dictionary and 金山词霸 had a 3-way call to discuss concerns of certain preliminary conditions not previously sought.

MA_pedia – a mirror site of wikipedia, everything is the same as the predecessor, except without the collaborative and volunteering edition from the mass; makes its own grammar, governs its own terminology, grades its own paper, and never lets go of the chalkboard, not even intentionally.

新年 快樂! 축하 새해! السنة الجديدة سعيد Feliz ano novo! bonne année ! feliz año nuevo! Happy New Year! Frohes neues Jahr! felice anno nuovo! Gelukkig nieuwjaar! 新しい年の楽しい! счастливого нового года! 您吃了吗？ meianren.NET, a multilingual open-to-all online social network community wishes you a Happy New 2009!

我们想了很久，今年给大家拜年，该说点什么又该怎么说呢？
唱不成低调子，因为问心无愧地讲还能低到那儿去呢？
也唱不成高调子，因为在今年高调显得不实际，也难以让人相信。

2009是糟糕的一年，希望是不会再坏的一年；怕只怕是坏刚刚开始的一年。
引一位笔者的话，我怀疑今年是全球的本命年。
它是不知所措的一年，是冒险的一年，是运筹帷幄的一年，是有的放矢的一年，是精打细算的一年，
是见了兔子撒了鹰不一定能抓着兔子的一年，
是见了兔子不撒鹰也许会后悔一辈子的一年，

“Don’t forget to vote today, Obama!”
Five minutes later, another message came in and puzzled me at first:
“Free tal reg cofe 2day only at Starbucks.go!”
