World Toast, Global Cheer.

It ocurred to me that a lot of times we get together as friends and family over a drink.  Whether is wine, beer, coffee or tea, we sit, we chat, we get together.
Today, thanks to technology we are all a click away from chatting with people we might or might not know around the world, we share ideas, pictures, news.  So it seems to me is a natural thing to have a World toast, to bring Global Cheer into our lives.  It might be a way to get to understand each other a bit better, across cultures, borders and languages.  Or it might just be an excuse to get sloshed. Either way, let´s get together.
Our global forum will be twitter (www.twitter.com) An easy way to get together will be using a hash tag, everything related with the world toast will be tweeted using the hash tag #worldtoast and it will appear on red in the tweets.  By clicking there you will be taken to the global conversation.
If you are away from the net, just remember to cheer, chat and meet others on Saturday night. Many others around the word will be doing the same.
Saturday is a day most people are off but I also keep in mind that in some parts of the world it will be Sunday morning.  So you don´t have to be chugging beers at 7am, the idea is just to get together over your drink of choice, whether is wine or coffee.
This World Toast will happen between Saturday eve, August 28th and Sunday morning, August 29th, depending on where you are in the world.  So look at the map and see where you are and what time it is for you and join us.
Here´s a TIME ZONES map, to help us get together at the same time. http://www.worldtimezone.com/Here´s more info:
