Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO, told the world on Wendsday December 15th that he was Time Magazines person of the year. He did this by putting this on Facebook where anyone can see it. Mark launched facebook in Feb. 2004 and facebook became a huge social network hit by 2008. They say through facebook more than a half a billion people connect with eachother. Mark was honored with this recognition. However, many techies will argue that others perhaps should have gotten the reward instead of Mark. Some say the wikileaks owner Julian Assange should have won it. Others say anyone from the tea party should have won it. Some say that the Times Magazine picked someone that everyone agreed with, not someone who was contorversal.
I think Time Magazine can give it to whoever they want to. If you dont agree with who it was then get your own magazine and put your own guy in it. This guy is a good guy, he doesnt keep all the money that he recevies he just gave away 100 million to the schools in Newark. Puting this guy as person of the year is way better to read about than reading about the war and gloom in the world.
