Time Person of the Year: You.

Time named all of us as Person of the Year.

Time - Person of the Year: You

From the article:

It’s about the cosmic compendium of knowledge Wikipedia and the million-channel people’s network YouTube and the online metropolis MySpace.

Web 2.0 harnesses the stupidity of crowds as well as its wisdom.

Web 2.0 is a massive social experiment, and like any experiment worth trying, it could fail.

This is an opportunity to build a new kind of international understanding, not politician to politician, great man to great man, but citizen to citizen, person to person.

What I mostly like about Web 2.0, the Long Tail, the Wisdom of Crowds, etc. is that it is not about a few things that everyone likes but about all the things that each person likes.
