I thought the the 50 Most Important People on the Web list was pretty thorough, but also pretty out of order. I think Kevin Martin (FCC) should be a lot higher than #11, but that's not nearly as ignorant as putting Tim Berner's Lee and the W3C down at #46 when the W3C is behind the entire development of the Web. The Google guys at #1 *and* #9 and the Yahoo guys down at #19? Apparently PC World has it's lips wrapped so tightly around Google's cock that you couldn't separate the two. To quote Miss LaGizma, "put your pants on." Literally.

As important and influential as BitTorrent is, I don't think Bram Cohen can really be included here since BitTorrent doesn't operate on the Web and instead is a completely separate protocol. Also I can't believe the guy who came up with RSS is all the way down at #39; I don't really have any use for feeds, but *tons* of people like the Web served up that way.

Oh yeah, and fuck Carlos Mencia. He's a triple threat: unfunny, uniformed, and racist.
