18 March - SuperPower Nation day

1900: And that's it! It's all over at Shoreditch Town Hall. Thankyou so much for , in whatever language you sent them in. Don't forget that the .

1858: On last thought, this from IDG in Brazil: "Take care of your children, don't rely on teachers or society to do this!"

1856: The group on stage strike up for the final song. There is a lot of sitar going on. Four minutes left.

1853: "Please stop eating us - there aren't many of us left", pleads Bluefin Tuna, from the Atlantic Ocean. Apparently.

1851: "Pray for peace" are the words Rose in Canada would like to share with the world. Meanwhile Edu in Brazil says "oops, I'm naked here." Probably too much information, Edu.

1850: If you are in the Arab world, you can now watch the end of SuperPower Nation on Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Arabic television.

1846: Douglas in Brazil has three simple words - clearly inspired by Barack Obama - "Yes we can"

1842: On , Ros talks to an Eritrean woman about her experience of the day. "I have a huge big question for the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú that no-one can answer. I am puzzled why the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú is so biased about Eritrea. What I think is that the media is so powerful it is set against Eritrea."

1840: If you're watching Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú World or Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Persian television, you can watch our last live broadcast for the day now.

1834: One of my favourite messages of the day, from Eugene, in Italy. "A few minutes ago I read "We Are All One". I think that acronym W.A.A.O! would be very nice to describe what we are doing now."

1830: debating the crucial issue of corruption in developing countries. There are calls for the United Nations to get involved in tackling the problem - but doubts on whether they have the teeth to do it.

1828: "Are there any other intelligent beings from outerspace here?" asks Evan in Cleveland, Ohio. I don't really know what to say to that. ?

1820: Our final topic for the day: ? I don't know what I'd say, but it wouldn't be that terrible Egyptian pun below.

1819: "The best thing we have in our country is The GOODNESS of our People, The great ancient civilization, and the beautiful weather of Egypt," says Ahmed Rakha in Cairo. Pharaoh nuff. Sorry.

1814: I've always been slightly apprehensive about Colombia, so I was very interested in what Ivan in Bogata has to say: "My country is kindness, people! simply is beautiful, unfortunately this to violence in many respects we are opaque." There may be a little mistranslation there, but I think I know what he means.

1810:click World Have Your Say is back on air. Currently debating the needs of South Africa. You can listen click here.

1808: Faby Gomez from Guadalajara, Mexico, is very proud of of his country's "diversity, climate, food, beliefs." If I made food like the Mexicans, I'd be proud of it too. ?

1805: "The best thing about my country is, of course, hospitality and kindness - you should find out for yourself!" says Matt in Tarnow, Poland. Matt, I would love to.

1800: One hour of our SuperPower Nation experiment left. Meanwhile here's Mohammad Tajima of Nepal on his favourite things: "the amazing Landscape and People of this country." Just like Derbyshire.

1756: "A lovely cup of tea" is Heather in Portsmouth's favourite thing about the UK. Mike in Texas, meanwhile, has this thought about the US: "The right to say what you think... Sometimes it's also the worst :)"

1750: And it's new topic time. Now we're asking ? For me - here in England - it's my home county of Derbyshire. "There is no finer county in England than Derbyshire" wrote Jane Austen, and she was absolutely right.

1747:It looks like we've got someone - specifically, Denisson in Brazil - in trouble: "My boss came to ask me what I'm doing. - On the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú website, superpower nation day. Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú, he had to ask if you want to have responsibility for unemployment." Sorry Denisson.

1736: More comments on the internet censorship debate. Here's Samegui in Sao Paulo: "Nobody should control what you can see online. But we have to take good care of the children, 'cause they are not able to choose yet." Is it important to think about what children can see? .

1731: Cecily Liu and Roberta Fortuna join me - they are from China and Brazil, and have been talknig about the differences between their two countries. They agree that Brazil has become more Western and democractic, with strong European and American influcences - while China prides itself on its Eastern tradititons. But both have something in common - an increasing middle class, which is making the country more equal.

1723: Food, in Montevideo, is convinced that no-one should control what is seen online - "since it is impossible to control everything that goes on the internet. The control should be given the style of wikipedia." What do you think - would a Wikipedia-style approach work? .

1720: I speak to Nour Idriss, one of a group of five Girl Guides in the hall, all who speak different languages. The group have been talking about the technology we are using today. In general they were impressed, although Nour said she has noticed that not all the Arabic makes sense when translated.

1713: There's a new topic to talk about - ? What do you think - who should decide what you can and can't view? Should anyone? What should be the limits anyway? All big questions - we'd love to know your thoughts.

1642: New topic - inspired by Matt (1604) - ? Have you ever been on a date with someone you met on the internet? Did it work out? .

1630: Amir Biabani of the Green movement in Iran - representing political students in Europe - is one of our guests. "The Western media, because of the current regine in Iran, has been ignoring events in the country... they are not even trying," he says. "We are letting the world know about what is happening in Iran - the fighting for freedoms, for human rights. People contact each other online on the day of protest - taking great risks."

1624: Time for Act 2 of Romeo and Juliet - in German and Turkish.

1623: Kate McGeown stops by to pick up a selection of your best quotes. I particularly like this from Shakiel in Derby, on the internet as a right/privilege debate: "I think in the past the same questions may have been asked of education and books or libraries. The internet is a tool for education, everyone has the right to that."

1608: My colleague Phillipa Joy, who is helping run the Global Conversation board, tells me that people have been writing in French, Polish and Japanese - and successfully having their comments translated.

1604: "Anyone up for a date? I'm willing to travel more or less anywhere. I'm very rich." says Matt in Westminster. The topic of online dating rears its head. I'm frankly surprised it's taken this long.

1559: "This is amazing technology and i hope they will apply to all of the internet," says Roman Broberg in New York. But on America's West Coast, David in San Francisco has this warning: "I am affraid this will be another reason to prevent Americans from learning a new language."

1555: Back on topic: "I do not think the internet is a right. It is rather a luxury. There are always people in this world who do not have enough to eat. Food is a right not the Internet," says Jacques Grosdalle in Paris. On the other hand, here's Zhou Peng Ying, Kunming, Yunnan, China: "In the present world, the Internet is a necessity." Join the debate .

1550: I know we've moved on from football, but I couldn't resist highlighting this comment from Frederick in Argentina: "Maradona will make us look bad to the world. I apologize in advance."

1542: Children addicted to the internet is prompting heated discussion on Table 23 here - where Nigerians and Jamaicans are sitting together. Is it a problem for you? .

1534: The Sudanese and French speakers in the hall are debating whether the best way to learn a language is to live in a community that speaks it. It's certainly true in my case. I used to be terrible at German - and then I did two weeks' work experience in Darmstadt. Passed with top marks. Danke schorn!

1531: Is the web a right or a luxury? That's the new debate on the . What do you think? Have your say.

1523: More Romeo and Juliet - this time the balcony scene - in Japanese.

1514: Things have calmed down briefly as some late lunch arrives for the hungry talkers. Interesting how mealtimes do get people talking - even if, like here, there's nowhere really to sit and eat except the laptop-covered tables...

1505: Incidentally, if you've not tried out our new multi-lingual tool - - then where have you been? Think of something to say, and then say it! Do it. Do it now!

1501: I talk with Osman Mohamed, chairman of the Somali National Party, - which means Long Live Somalia. They use the internet as the main means of communicating to their members, who are mostly global expatriots. "The internet is the best tool - the cheapest and most effective way of communicating," he says.

1453: I grab Jose Pinocet of click Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Mundo. What does he want to talk about, given the chance? "Barcelona, last night - magnificent. Messi and the rest." For the uninitiated, click FC Barcelona won rather well against Stuttgart. Football seems to be a really big topic amongst the global audience...

1447: New topics being discussed in the hall - can Africa solve its conflicts? Why are certain bombings "endorsed" and others not? And how do you best get to know someone else? Have your say on these - or anything else - .

1445: A new multi-lingual band on stage - this once including a Zimbabwean, a Cypriot and two Brazilians. Much guitar work. "It's an experiment, like everything else today", we are warned - but a surprisingly tuneful one.

1417: "It's kind of crazy. It's like being inside an engine. It's got the feel of a campaign office, or a telethon. But I would like to be able to hear any one thing," says Dan Sung of , who is visiting the hall.

1413: "The problem is respect" says Eyassu Tsadik, one of a group of Ahamaric speakers in the hall. "There is so little respect for human rights in our country."
