Thats Right, give Yourself a pat on the back !
You've been named Time Magazines Person of the Year!!
That right YOU. And especially you fellow Opera Community Members for the GREAT job you've all done this year.
“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,” the magazine’s Lev Grossman wrote.
You beat out candidates including Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, China’s President Hu Jintao, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il and James Baker, the former U.S. Secretary of State who led Washington’s bipartisan Iraq Study Group.
Time has been naming its person of the year since 1927 and the tradition has become the source of speculation every year, as well as controversy over unpopular choices such as Adolf Hitler in 1938 and Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979.
The aim is to pick “the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or for ill, and embodied what was important about the year, for better or for worse.”
Grossman said the creators and consumers of user-generated Internet sites showed a community and collaboration on a scale never seen before.
So sit back and wallow in your 15 minutes of fame. You deserve it!
Peace Love and KBOZ
