As a parting note for the New year we thought of talking about the new times square ball to be used this new years eve. For one hundred years, the Times Square New Year’s Eve Ball has attracted millions of revelers to Times Square on December 31st to celebrate the beginning of the New Year. This year New York is set to debut a dazzling new LED-encrusted New Year’s ball! Composed of 32,256 Philips Luxeon Rebel LEDs, the 12-foot wide energy-efficient orb weighs in at 11,875 pounds, making it twice the size of any ball previously dropped overhead in Time Square. The use of LEDS this year makes it 20% more energy efficient and marks a new era for the enlightened consumer. Cheers to all of you for a happy and prosperous 2009.
