Time Magazine's Person of the Year

It really is Mark Zuckerberg's year. Facebook has reached half a billion users, a blockbuster movie with lots of Oscar buzz came out-much to the dismay of Zuckerberg and now the very news publication thats writing about him has named the young billionaire as their Person of the Year. Past winners have included presidents, world leaders, media moguls, national heroes, and Hitler. With 1 in 10 people now using the social media application, Facebook and its founder has gotten a lot of attention. The Social Network came out and brought up a lot of questions of integrity and motives behind starting the website. This article is newsworthy just by the sheer importance and power behind each person selected. This will definitely not be the last news coverage of Zuckerberg. As Facebook grows, his private life will become more and more of public interest and knowledge.
