We’re right around two hours away from the second observance of Earth Hour. We hope you’ll join us at 8 p.m. and shut down any non-essential electrical items around you.
If you need some ideas on what to do during Earth Hour 2008, try out these suggestions courtesy of the event’s website.
We’ll see you on the other side.

Birmingham’s Police Department appears to have settled on a new decal package for their vehicles. It was one of the early initiatives announced when Larry Langford was elected mayor late last year by himself and chief A.C. Roper.
Here’s a picture of one of them on patrol in the Five Points West area close to Fair Park Arena earlier today.
So, click here and let us know what do you think?
BTW, if you’re in the area today, stop by and say hello at Family Tech Day!

Screenshot of the Birmingham Public Library’s Twitter page.
There have been several groups that have recently signed up with Twitter, tweeting to their heart’s content. The latest major addition to the network is our own Birmingham Public Library. If you visit http://twitter.com/bpl, you’ll be able to keep up with the latest happenings throughout the system. Twitter allows you to follow on your computer, you cell phone or in your existing instant messaging program.
Click here to learn more about signing up (courtesy of the folks at the library’s computer center) and don’t forget to follow a certain local hub as well.
FYI, they’re also on Flickr and YouTube if you’re interested…

Let’s get this second announcement out of the way:
The Terminal is implementing a voluntary subscription model beginning today!
Now that I’ve got your attention, I’m going to explain why we’ve decided to go in that direction and what it means to you (or you can just go directly to our new support page).

We did say yesterday that we’d have an announcement today on the site. We actually have two announcements to share with you. This first one is more of a confirming what those who attended our anniversary party already know. We want to make sure that you’re aware of three new initiatives that we intend to launch before the end of April (though we are aware that in one case, it may be delayed until mid-May). We think that you’ll be happy with all of these as it adds to the conversation.
Read more about the new series after the jump or just hang out and wait for the second announcement of the day (coming later this morning after 1 p.m.).
