New 7 Wonders of the World - who would you vote for?


The original 7 wonders of the world are no more and are down to just one - the pyramids at Giza.

Someone has come up with the idea of an online vote for the new 7 wonders of the world.

In all honesty I have to say it is hard to tell whether or not this site is genuine or whether it is just a scam aimed at raising some money and selling some products.

Their shortlist of 21 which can be seen here seems a little odd to me. The Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower to mention two.

If I had to narrow it down to seven I would go for the following :

1. Stonehenge

2. The Great Wall of China

3. The Pyramids of Giza

4. The Easter Island Statues

5. Angkor Wat

6. Machu Picchu

7. Chichen Itza

The whole bloody thing, plus the rest of the universe ;)

There's so many wonders in this world, natural and man made, just 7 is too few...
