New Year's Wishing Wall Online
Not related to cell phones, just New Year. Messages and wishes for the new year from people around the world will float down on the New Year's Eve revelers in Times Square when the confetti is dropped.
Anyone can get a message printed on a piece of the multicolored confetti by visiting the Times Square Information Center or by using the Internet to type a message at "Wishing Wall Online".
The message-carrying pieces will be mixed among the more than one ton of confetti, organizers said.
So far, messages have included everything from wanting to be taller or having a smarter boss to healthy children and asking for the safe return of a child from Iraq. "Peace in the World," reads one posted on the "virtual wishing wall. How about "Let Ingrid Bettancourt and the hostages go".
