It’s amazing how time rolls on. Here we are at the end of 2007. It’s been a pretty intense year for a lot of people with many heavy challenges. This seems to be the case for us, and for many people we know.<\/p>\n

Yet also, 2007 allowed for many good things to happen as well. For this site in particular, it was a very active and productive year. We crossed many landmarks, 10,000 reviews, 7,000 listings, 4000 members, and millions of visitors. We’ve added all kinds of functionality to the site that visitors have even yet to discover, including: “Interactive maps” for International cities, “My Saved Lists” allowing users to save lists of restaurants for trip-planning and printing, a new chat room<\/a>, a new forum<\/a>, loads of new recipes<\/a>, this veggie blog, and lots more. 2008 promises to reveal an even more exciting community emerging here on HappyCow. We hope you continue to find this site even more useful in the near future.<\/p>\n

2008 also offers potential for great change in the world. Our wish & prayers are for changes which create peace and balance.<\/p>\n

May 2008 make this world an easier place for all sentient beings to live peaceably together.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Wishing you peace, happiness, & good health,<\/p>\n
