Mediaeval Towns
Buildings, Population, Organisation
The mediaeval town was a fortified place where people lived who most of all engaged in commerce and trade.
It was created either from the remnants of older towns dating back to times before the Middle Ages or as a new settlement of people. These settlements were also built in special places marked by their location near a body of water, a trading route, a castle or a monastery.
With the rise and increasing importance of the town during the Middle Ages, the power structures in Europe changed as well. Town charters and wealthy, influential town citizens increasingly competed with the old power holders such as the emperor, king or other sovereigns from the nobility and Church.

Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
