Take me back to July 28, 2004

Let's go back to the 2000s.

It is Wednesday, July 28, 2004. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Leo. It is "Hump Day", so many are beginning to think about the weekend ahead.

The summer of 2004 is in full swing. The weather is warm, and the evenings are brighter than usual. Most schools and colleges are now finished until August or September. In America, the song "Confessions Part II" by Usher is at the top of the singles charts, while "Dry Your Eyes" by Streets is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie The Bourne Supremacy is at the top of the box office.

Tony Blair is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. In technology news, more and more people are beginning to gain access to the Internet. Internet speeds are increasing and MP3 sharing is beginning to threaten the existence of music stores. People are using a software program called LimeWire to share music, software, and videos. Unfortunately, it is also a haven for computer viruses.

Smartphones don't exist yet. There are no Androids or iPhones. Cameras on phones are quickly becoming the norm. However, the photographs that they take are still lacking in quality. Internet users are using MSN Messenger and AIM to chat with each other online.

It's 2004, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Usher, Alicia Keys, Maroon 5, OutKast, Mario Winans, the Terror Squad and Ciara. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Rick James, Brian Clough, Big Boss Man, and ODB would all still be alive. On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "The West Wing", "Malcolm in the Middle", "Andromeda", and "24".

Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "RuneScape", "Pro Evolution Soccer 3", "Need for Speed: Underground", and "Spider-Man 2". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "Rugrats", "7th Heaven", "The Cramp Twins", and "Drake & Josh". Popular toys at the moment include HitClips audio player, Bionicle LEGO, Lamaze Octotunes, and Justice League Figures.
