Mark Zuckerberg is Time's Person of the Year 2010


I know you know and this is old news. However, my post is about the negative comments and discussions on the net on why Zuckerberg doesn't deserve to be the Time's Person of the Year.

I just wish they would just shut up. Most people love Facebook and that's the first thing they check on their PC, or Macs and now their mobile phones, when they wake up.

When egos on the web collide

Just watched Leo Laporte telling off Mike Arrington on YouTube. I learnt about it from Tim Jennion's blog.

I don't necessarily agree with the language used but I think that Leo is right to be pissed off. I mean I wrote about the Palm Pre on my blog as well. If I had received a review copy, I would have done a better job reviewing it.

I have received review copies in the past including the 3 USB Dongle and to say that this would make you biased is totally out of line.

Makes Mike sound like he's having a case of sour grapes.
