I'm not a jingoist, and there is no harm in criticizing oneself.

According to TV News source,
" Taj Mahal tops the list of new seven wonders of the world"
" 100 million voted from around the world"
" 21 monuments from across the world were in the race"

The Taj Mahal, regarded as one of the most beautiful monuments, was tonight voted in a global poll as one of the new seven wonders of the world. Officials of the I Media Corp, the Indian representative of 'New7wonders of the World', claimed that they got the information about the Mughal marvel getting into the list from the Swiss organisation which organised the worldwide campaign[/FONT]

news channels are real crap.:mad: they were showin the names of other wonder like Kremlin etc and except Taj none made to final list so i was very afraid in the end not so coz Taj may not be in the list (IT DOES NOT NEED A CERTIFICATE TO BE A WONDER AND IT IS THE GREATER MONUMENTS AND WILL BE THE GREATEST SYMBOL OF LOVE AND PASSION)
but coz that wat these stupid news channels will do after that.
and yeah here some1 was sayin that all those who voted are fools then i say YES WE ARE FOOL BUT THAT PERSON WHO SAID THEM FOOL IS EVEN GREATER. i agree Taj doesnt need a new wonder certificate but if some1 is givin a certificate like that then YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CERTIFICATE REACHES TO IT TRUE DESERVER

Whether it was a private organised or govt. organised. The thing was that it was getting recognisation all over the world. And by getting Taj in the list, Indian Tourism will definately get a boost.

U sound as if that "someone" is doing a HUUUUUUUUGE favour to India, Indians and Taj. Mind u, this certificate is not "free" and no way based on aesthetic evaluation by experts, but solely on "popularity".

^^ Can't entirely rule that out. How dumb would u look if u r compiling the "wonders" and u don't have Taj in it.

Clinton, after visiting Taj commented, "There are two types of people in the world. One who hasn't seen Taj and the other who has."

Taj is just too heavy to ignore.

I Read this in news:
The seven beat out 14 other nominated landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower, Easter Island in the Pacific, the Statue of Liberty, the Acropolis, Russia's Kremlin and Australia's Sydney Opera House.

Now
Do the results mean these are SECOND GRADE to the 6 monuments selected?

Well... UNESCO has said "NO"

I'm still reeling from the fact... how can "Angkor Wat" not be in the 7 wonders.

The company had the audacity to put Pyramids from Egypt in voting list... had to remove it. (as it's the original ancient 7 wonders... only sole survivor)

Damn all the marketing hype...

Hey guys it;s good that Taj was selected in the top seven wonders but this is certainly not true that it has been voted the most or that it's on the first place. This news was shown only by the F** India TV i guess which has no work than to spread rumours. Actually there isn't any rankings declared for the wonders. See Times of India [Pune times] Dated 10th July if you don't believe.
