Last year, when the Time magazine named us (you, me, everybody) as the person of the year, they pulled the biggest linkbaid scheme in the history of the web. All in all, their little strategy allowed them to get more than 6000 linkbacks to their story. This year, CNN Money has attempted to do the same thing by naming YOU one of the 50 things that really matter in 2007, and up to now, their attempt is failing miserably.
In our second annual ranking, Business 2.0 has compiled an unabashedly subjective list of people, products, trends, and ideas that are transforming the world of business.
The article was only published 2 days ago, so I guess it still has time to gain popularity in the blogosphere, but I doubt that it will get the success that Time received with their “Person of the Year” award.
The 50 Who Matter Now (CNN Money)
- How Nintendo Got Its Groove Back
- Scientists Create Billions of Particles of Anti-Matter in Lab
- Creating a New State of Matter – The Meisner Effect
- Size is only a matter of perception
I guess it pays to be the first :)
I just got this issue in my mailbox (postal mail) yesterday and I have to say that it sucks. This cover story (the 50 who matter now) is so subjective (as you said) and not very informative.
