Erepublik.com is an on-line society. You have their official presentation bellow. The web-based game was developed by a romanian programmer who sold parts of it to a number of investors. The project is in his beta stage and for the moment invitation is required in order to get in. I have 3000 people ahead of me on the waiting list and their server is acting up sometimes but … sounds interesting.

The Erepublik story

History is something that already exists. You inherit it and you enrich it with your life experiences. But now you have a chance to create a different history in the Erepublik world.

Being part of it, you have the opportunity to develop your economy and to create a working society with political institutions. You may concentrate on serving your country or on finding a way to personally advance in this new world perhaps by having military activity, creating private companies or getting others to elect you as a political leader.

You will have to use your wits to make your country one of the best in Erepublik. You should invite your friends to join you and together create a better society or maybe become strong soldiers and invade others..

Alberto Contandor, who rides for Team Astana, is the first non-Italian rider to win Il Giro d’Italia in the last 12 years. He was joined on the podium by, of course, 2 italians: Riccardo Ricco and Marzsio Bruseghin. Contador is source of major controversy after his transfer  to Astana, a team who was banned from Le Tour De France 2007 and also from this year’s event due to doping issues.

In tennis Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic eased to the final 16 of Roland Gaross.

Britain’s Got Talent finds the winner: George Sampson, a teenage streetdancer

1 06 2008

George Sampson, the amazing teen breakdancer, managed to win this year’s Britain’s Got Talent. With a lovely smile, great ambition and determination and a huge amount of talent, Sampson found his way to performing in front of the Queen.

The teenager, however, was not for the first time on Britain’s Got Talent. He took part in the 2007 edition as well, and although he received the priceless support and admiration of Simon Cowell, his road stopped in the semi-finals. Nevertheless, Sampson did not give up, and so this year he returned stronger than he had been and with more enthusiasm and ambition than anyone would get to see in a person of his age.

Well done, George!

Here you can watch two videos of George Sampson on Britain’s Got Talent:
