I happened to see some pictures (via Archdaily) from various pavilions' construction yesterday for Shanghai Expo 2010 and it made me recall when World Expos were actually synonym with architectural experiments and innovation.
In 1958, Le Corbusier and Xenakis designed the Philips Pavilion for Brussels' Expo
In 1967, Montreal's Expo hosts various innovative buildings designed by Frei Otto (German Pavilion), Moshe Safdie (Habitat67) and Buckminster Fuller (Biosphere).
In 1970, Kisho Kurokawa designed three buildings for Osaka's Expo as metabolist manifestos.
Today, the French pavilion for Shanghai 2010 is pretty representative of the global quality of architecture (as far as the Expo is concerned but maybe also in general): it is drab, conventional and thinks it talks about sustainability because some plants grow (have been plugged) on it... I talk about the French one, but the others are not so interesting either...Heatherwick's British pavilion might be the only one interesting questioning the notion of archive by hosting a giant seed bank.

I believe what you published was very logical. But, think about this, suppose
RépondreSupprimeryou composed a catchier post title? I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added a headline to possibly grab folk's
attention? I mean "# World Expos from the past"
is kinda vanilla. You should peek at Yahoo's front page and see how they create post titles to get people to open the links. You might add a related video or a related pic or two to get readers interested about everything've got to say.
Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.
