You (Time Person of the Year)
&sq=crain_ford&lang=en&file=File:Time_youcover01.jpg)
"You" was the official choice for Time's Person of the Year in 2006. The magazine set out to recognize the millions of people who anonymously contribute user-generated content to websites such as YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Wikipedia and other wikis, and the multitudes of other websites featuring user contribution.[1][2]
While the status had been given before to inanimate objects, with the personal computer being the "Machine of the Year" for 1982,[3][2] as well as collections of people or an abstract representative of a movement, the choice of "You" attracted criticism from commentators in publications such as The Atlantic for being too much of a pop culture gimmick.[4][2] A 2014 New York Daily News article named the 2006 award as one of the ten most controversial "Person of the Year" moments in the history of Time.[2] The news magazine experienced generally successful sales.
