CNN reported how Oct. 31 marks 1,000 days until the London 2012 Olympic Games, a little less than three years.

“I don’t think any of us thinks that 1,000 days is anything other than the blink of an eyelid,” London 2012 Chairman Sebastian Coe said. “That will go very quickly. There is nothing that we should have done that we haven’t done. We are absolutely where we want to be, but we also recognize that actually the last three years of this project are tough years of delivery.”

Many Twitterers were excited about the countdown:
