TIME’s Person of the Year for 2006 is YOU.
You? It’s about TIME!
Of course You.
It always has been you. It always will be you. However, you are not a given, are you?
You create, you consume, you contribute, you criticize. You start, you finish, you speak, you listen. You build, you destroy, you laugh, you cry. You share, you hoard, you grow, you die.
Social Media is the newest tool in the globalization of democracy. Perhaps the most important democratic tool since the ballot box. It is the long awaited glue binding democracy to capitalism. It is your contribution that guarantees citizenship in this new world of collaboration, community and commerce.
2006, was just the beginning.
The age of dialogue is here.
