Time Magazine's Person of the Year

I was reading the news this morning, and was a little curious about one of the less serious top stories. It seems that Time Magazine chose, "citizens of the new digital democracy", anyone using or creating content on the world wide web, as the Person of the Year. Apparently President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran was the likely choice, but the magazine cited the shift institutions to individuals (eh, even though the President would still qualify as an indivual) as a reason. In any case, I am pretty sure this announcement means that we (yes, me writing this and you reading this) have just been announced winners, as well. Right?
Weird. At least they added a 26-person list of People Who Mattered (this year).
