Not quite the end of year, but...
Just watched Google's "Zeitgeist 2010: How the world searched".
I know we'll all get this on the Box at Christmas, but there's only a few weeks left till we see out 2010. It does seem that so very much happened this year, some good, some tragic. It reminds us of events including:
The Euro debt crisis, US unemployment, the Thailand political situation, the first face transplant, the Space Station, the oil spill in the Gulf, Justin Bieber, the Chilean Miners, the Chinese and Haiti earthquakes, and the passing of some well known names, including Dennis Hopper, Leslie Neilson, Alexander McQueen, and Lynn Redgrave.

Total unemployment falls, but long term increases
The number of people unemployed in the UK has fallen again, leaving the jobless rate at 7.8%, figures show.
However - long-term unemployment, (covering those out of work for more than a year), rose by 61,000 to 687,000.
Rachel Reeves, parliamentary candidate for West Leeds and a co-author of a report published on Wednesday by the Institute for Public Policy Research, said last year:
"If we are to get Britain back to work, there will have to be large increases in the jobs available in hi-tech manufacturing and private service sectors such as the creative industries."
