    080808, BitTorrent Meets Art Once Again

    For those who haven’t noticed, it’s a special day today. 080808 is not only the day the Olympics start, it is also the name of a new experimental art project that’s being released on BitTorrent trackers near you, uncensored.

    080808 is not only the day the Olympics start
    the reason why the olympic starts on this certain day in beijing is because the numbers 0 and 8 is considered to be a lucky number in chinese and some asian countries..

    Yea, heard about that ... some asians consider "lucky" numbers to be very important. Some are also deemed "unlucky", like the number 4 for example, which sounds like the word for "death" in Chinese and Japanese; some asian buildings don't have a 4th floor.

    yea, and in america the number 13 is considered to be bad luck but in japan 13 is a lucky number.. that's why most of the building here in the US have no 13th floor and if the building has a 13 floor it's usually owns by a japanese corporation

    LOL no, it means "microsoft japan" for both of us! :-D

    Btw Google translate thinks "SB Innovation" means "self-innovation" when translating a whole webpage... which is actually kind of nice.
