Vote for me in the Time 100 poll!

Due no doubt to a clerical error, Time has picked me as one of the top 200 most influential people of the year. They've put it all online as an interactive poll, with the aim of helping the editors pick 100 people for the magazine's Top 100 list. I'm not sure whether it's the number of votes or the average rating that will ultimately influence the decision, but your clicking will help either way (unless you give me a really low rating. Ulp.). Right now I've got an average rating of 44, which puts me somewhere between Osama Bin Laden and Moqtada Al-Sadr. I'd like to be, well, a different kind of influential. Vote me up and make it so!

Well, some of those guys plus the two you're sandwiched between are the most powerful, up-and-coming folks in the world. Besides, what if we want to keep you a secret?

[Darren Johnson]

The World's most influential? Tee. And indeed, hee.

I wonder how many people outside the US feel influenced by Stephen Colbert (I had to look him up, never even heard of him). Or an ice-hockey player? Please. thanks - I needed a laugh.

You got my votes.

I 've voted too. A well deserved high rank! If there is a new reality emerging, let it be based upon the economic and cultural (and, in some way, profoundly democratic) principles of the Long Tail.

Greetings from Athens - Greece.

Isn't there a Long Tail perspective on such polls? Is it important to be at the mass voting end, or sufficient to gain slow and regular support over the long term?
