   I found it personally interesting to see that I became more familiar the latter the year was. This makes sense since I was 7 then and 17 now, but I also see how my perception of news has changed.
   
   I felt that the large natural disasters were barely covered while petty political conflicts were more important. I think people need to be aware that we need to take action instead of arguing on how to take action.
   
   I realized a lot of the culture stuff, like "fads" and what was popular, I was not really interested in. I love 70's movies and music, and it was reflected by how I never watched American Idol, read Harry Potter, or got Rick Rolled.

   That was quite a review of the past decade. If your interested here is a link to 2009 in review with a comedic spin on it. http://sendables.jibjab.com/originals/never_a_year_like_09
   
   I would have to agree with you david, I was never really interested in all of the fads. Maybe it is because most of the ones they showed in the video were from when we were pretty young.
   
   Most of the political events were pounded into everyone's head. Almost everybody could of named 9/10 of the scandals or turning points in the election.
   
   Although I will have to say that I see a great tide of change coming for the next decade for sure. I believe things will change more rapidly in the next ten years. It will be very interesting to watch.
