Check out this video from Twitter’s official blog… it shows activity on the social media site from around the world as new years made it’s way across the globe. The video starts around midnight in Japan where Tokyo has many tweeters.

Check out this perfect 30-second video made by Rassak client Worldreader’s Elizabeth Wood highlighting their work bringing reading (of both local and global books) to Ghana the smart way — via e-readers.
