WOT 69-Time Magazine Person of the Year

I totally agree John and I think it is to sell magazines.

I guess it comes down to exactly what TIME is looking for in the person of the year.

Hi John and thanks for the comment. Certainly as with anything; politics, facebook or even food, there and personal preferences. I don't see facebook as a life changing paradigm and in fact don't even use it for personal use, but that's just me. The point I was attempting to make on the show is I believe there are more worthy causes and individual statues of value which are more valuable for such an acclaim. Social Media has certainly had it's impacts but not to the degree of leadership, world value and the humanity impacts as other figures have. Hey maybe it will be you on the cover next year!

I don't agree with any of you on the TIME magazine Zuckerberg choice. I thought it was a surprising choice but when you think about it it makes sense. Who has impacted the life of everyday Americans more than Mark Zuckerberg in the last year? He has a hand in every feature of Facebook. I'm assuming you already know thi...s but do you know why Facebook is blue everywhere? It's because Mark is color blind and can only see blue. Because one man is color blind it makes a difference in the way 500,000,000 people see Facebook. If it was my choice I would have given it to Glenn Beck for that huge event he had in DC and how the tea party (led by him) impacted this last election. But I don't think the Mark Zuckerberg choice was that bad.
