World Event Highlights 2012

There is a huge number of various websites telling you about the most important world events in 2012. I found Google's Zeitgeist 2012 really interesting because it's not only someone' s opinion but the number of clicks and searches according to which the important people/events/etc. are shown. I've chosen some that I found interesting, and here they are in no special oder:



Olympic Games in London - I've just checked the medal section of the official website: Serbia won 4 medals and Hungary 17

Steve Jobs's death - the head of the Apple Inc. passes away, all those lovely gadgets such as iPads, iPods, iPhones are to be thanked to him...

Barack Obama's reelection - the first Afro American president is reelected.

The Socialists and the Radicals make up the new government of Serbia - a change that many people feared and many expected here in Serbia! i just hope it doesn't mean going back to the past completely and irreversibly. we'll see!

The Mayan Calendar and the end of the world on 21st December - what a hoax! what a media upheaval!

Pussy Riot arrest - 3 members of a Russian feminist punk-rock band get arrested because of their song against Putin.... 2 of them got 2 years of imprisonment which is an exaggerated punishment for singing a song imho
