YOU are the 'Time - Person of the year 2006'

Don't get confused....I am not talking about you but YOU. Alright, I'll make things a little easier to understand. The Time magazine thinks that it is not a single person that has changed the world but a lot of people did. Ordinary people with ordinary lives sharing ordinary stuff has produced an extra-ordinary combination that has redefined the way people communicate globally. It is all about what has now become a cliched term 'user-generated content', 'citizen reporting/marketing/blogging'. Be it in photo-sharing, blogging, video-sharing, social networking, or just about anything that constitutes the Internet 2.0. Armed with only an internet connection and some optional gadgets like digi-cam, camera-phone, people are transforming the world. So that makes me a recipient of this year's Person of the Year Award (if I can borrow Gaurav's words). I only hope they haven't noticed the time gap between posts on this blog.
