Take me back to June 2, 2007

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Saturday, June 2, 2007. Anyone born today will have the star sign Gemini. People are currently enjoying their weekend.

In the United States, the Memorial Day weekend of 2007 has recently come and gone. To many, this means that the summer has officially started. The summer of 2007 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 "Makes Me Wonder" by Maroon 5 is at the top of the singles charts, while "Umbrella" by Rihanna is the number-one song in the UK.

Meanwhile, in technology news, more and more people are beginning to use the Internet on their phones.
