Not sure what to make of it. Seems sorta ridiculous...but, whatever. Got our issue of TIME in the mail today, looks rather interesting.

I thought it was Soledad O'Brien... that's what the guy said on the CNN special.

Drudge had a good line on his radio show on this subject...

Put down that you were Time's 2006 "Person of the Year" on your resume.

The editor was on TWwGS and he didn't make a very good presentation of the idea. I haven't read the article.

But someone else pointed out that the top writers and the editors would argue about the choice for a few weeks and then publish it. In the old days.

Now, they do focus groups, opinion polls, etc. So now it seems more like a stunt designed to sell magazines when they pick "YOU."

Especially you. ;)
