Blogger offers iPhone "Invention of the Year" perspective

To Sergey Brin !
Sergey Brin is too busy with his power and his money to pay atention to the people who write to him and to the site made for him - mysergeybrin.com.
That is why i challenge you, Sergey Brin, to write me even one word, to prove the world you exist as a human!

I think my choice for a more accurate title for that award would be: "Consumer Device of the Year." Then I could agree with Time.

Exactly what kind of journalism did you expect from a crap rag like Time? Do you even think that their primitive writing staff has the ability to identify value outside the immediately tangible? If you're going to give Time ragazine the credibility to report the invention of the year, then you've caved into their small-minded plot to sell you glorified toilet paper. A best invention "award" from Time magazine is about as valuable as a "neutron physicist of the year award" from Cat Fancy. Enjoy your stupid press Apple; I'm sure you'll win more imaginary awards in the future.

It would be more precise if the award was for the "most covered tech gadget of the year" or for the "best marketing stunt of the year" and so on, and so on.

Just like Time's Man of the Year, this is not about being deserving ... it is about garnering the most press, which the iPhone has clearly done. If the blogger who started this knew more about what he was writing about he would have known that.

COME ON PEOPLE...its "could not care less"...sheesh!

If you "could care less" that means you've not reached you limit...

Its almost as bad as "irregardless".

Ugh.

what did they invent?

That was a good blog. I was expecting something along the lines of: "Oh, the iPhone sucks! The zunePhone is far more awesomer and works on T-Mobile!" but compared to those other inventions, the iPhone, despite being the best phone available, is, well, vain.

Yeah appalling that something within reach of 10% of the world (if that) can be considered invention of the year. I vote Lifestraw!
