To celebrate the start of the Olympics, three Chinese Twitter users (Flypig, Webleon and Babechloe) are promoting an event to share what people all over the world are doing on 08/08/08. This event originally started on Twitter, but similar events are taking place on sites such as Flickr and on the official #080808 blog, where you can find a number of buddy icons and graphics to help promote the event.
Share how you are participating in the Olympics today by ending your tweet with the hashtag #080808 and read other tweets from around the globe here.
