YouTube Is TIME's Invention of the Year
As a big YouTube user, I can't help but be excited for them as they continue to grow and grow and grow.  The past few weeks have been filled with good news (purchase by Google) and bad news (Comedy Central removed all content), but today's big news is that YouTube has been named TIME Inc's Invention of the Year for 2006

TIME’s 2006 list of the Best Inventions names YouTube as Invention of the Year for creating a new way for millions of people to entertain, educate, shock, rock and “grok” one another on a scale we’ve never seen before. Three twenty-something guys named Steve Chen, Chad Hurley, and Jawed Karim started it, but the rest of us, in our basements and bedrooms, with our broadband and our webcams, invented it.

Congratulations YouTube.  If last year was the year of the podcast (was the word added to the Mirium/Webster Dictionary for 2005), this year is the year of Video. (via)
