A Teacher, A Time Magazine, A Trendsetter
Workday - 8:15am-2:00pm
Time magazine made me 2006's Person of the Year. It's quite an honour.
From the reactions of a lot of people who felt Time made a poor decision, I can tell who just doesn't get it. First, they have to understand that Time's Person of the Year isn't always a "hero", it needs only to be a person who made a great impact that year. Secondly, you would have to actually be out there on the Internet seeing the types of websites that are transforming the web's second coming.
If you're sitting there still thinking this Internet thing is a fad, well welcome to fuddy-duddyism. You are now on the road to making yourself obsolete.
What's that? You want to be Time's Person of the Year, too? Well get out of that stuffy corner office, put aside the celebrity worship, turn away from your CNN and Iraq war obsession for even an hour and start contributing with the rest of us!
