Olympic countdowns in Beijing
Posted by Kim Schiefer under Olympics 2008, experiences in China
In Beijing you can find countdowns for the start of the Olympics 2008 everywhere. Some of them only display the days, most of them are accurate to the second. The unit I am living in also has a countdown but they update i every day manually. Every morning they exchange the numbers (except of the weekend). Since a few days, this countdown is wrong.

What is the word on ticket sales so far for the olympic games this summer? Are many of the events sold out? In Athens they had so much excess inventory that they had the army come and sit in to fill seats so that the events didn’t look empty.
