7 new wonders of the world

Two blogs in one day... this is definitely a first! I just came across an article on the 7 new wonders of the world, which will be revealed Saturday... but it's not too late to get in your vote for which wonders you think should be included in the list. The deadline to vote is tonight at 8 pm EDT. So far, the Great Wall of China, the Colosseum in Rome and Peru's Machu Picchu are at the top of the list. Others included in the top 10 are the Acropolis in Greece, Chichen Itza pyramid in Mexico, Eiffel Tower in Paris, Easter Island, Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Taj Mahal in India and Jordan's ancient city of Petra. About 90 million people have voted so far. The number one spot could still change, so get in those votes! Just visit the new 7 wonders website to cast your vote.
Update: Here are the new 7 wonders -- Brazil's Statue of Christ Redeemer, Peru's Machu Picchu, and Mexico's Chichen Itza pyramid, the Great Wall of China, Jordan's Petra, the Colosseum in Rome and India's Taj Mahal.
