and the Person of the Year is Me
Wednesday, December 20, 2006
So Time, paragon of reporting virtue that it is, decided to take the cheap and easy way out (like some people may have once preferred their sexual partners, ahem) and made pretty much every Web 2.0 user their Person of the Year.
Here's a snippet:
And for seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game, TIME's Person of the Year for 2006 is you.I guess you could say that 2006 was the Year of the Internet Geek. I wish I'd known sooner.
So, I'd like to take this moment and bask in the adulation afforded me for using MySpace, digging, diligently posting to my flickr account, using Gmail, knowing who lonelygirl15 was, and posting on either of my blogs.
In order to secure this same spot next year, I plan to get into del.icio.us, make netvibes my home page, and maybe break into the podcasting business. Have to think of a good niche. Think there's a market for a comic/scifi/videogame/tech podcast that has absolutely no more access to new information than whatever the podcaster can find on all those Web 2.0 sites?
Here's the link to the Time article. If you're a Person of the Year too, you've already read it.
