Thanks for the award, Time

Okay, it's old news by now but gimme a break, I'm just catching up on blogging.

So, Time Magazine's Person of the Year, apparently, is us. All of us. And yes, to be sure, it was quite a year for user-generated content. Many of us had never heard of MySpace or YouTube until this year. And don't forget about the bloggers.

There's something about this award that doesn't seem right. An old media outfit like Time ought to be selecting someone influential in world affairs, politics, business, or pop culture - instead of emphasizing the fact that the very media it's based its business on is increasingly becoming controlled by end users like us.

So, Time, I am here to give you my own award. It's called the "Media Title Most Rapidly Declining in Relevance" Award. Congratulations! It's you!
