Biggest things in 2006-2007

By: Ryan Anderson
One of the biggest things that happened in 2006 and 2007 was the releasing of Playstation 3 and Wii. everyone was going crazy trying to get there hands on one if not both. it was like these things had gold inside them and were worth millions. lines were going out the door just to have a chance at obtaining one. people were selling them on ebay for over a thousand dollars around christmas time.
another thing that exploded on the web was the creation of youtube. a guy that wanted to show his video over the web uploaded his video so that people could see what he was doing, now he is sitting at a desk somewhere making money by the min, as ppl upload videos everyday. its crazy how one min the guy was normal and now he is worth millions.
the third that stands out in my mind is that Pluto is not considered a planet anymore. i remember in grade school loving the planet pluto bc it was blue. its crazy now that one day i will be teaching my children that pluto is not a planet. also another thing is that Massacre at Virginia Tech. a student that attended the school walked down the hall and started shooting other students. i know that some professors wouldnt let him in some doors but the damage was done, killing several students and couple of professors. just goes to show you that it can happen at anytime, anywhere. one always has to be on the lookout for danger.
