IN the most recent Time 100 most influential survey the guy who invented the Nintendo Wii has been voted more influential than Nelson Mandela.

If that isn't bad enough the most influential person in the world is some singer called Rain that I have never heard off.

Weird

Mandela is retired - give him a break.

Time has broken up the list, I can't find a way to see it all one page :mad:

Borat is on the list, Bush didn't quite make it (http://www.news24.com/News24/World/News/0,,2-10-1462_2108387,00.html).

I thought Bush was in at 97?

Whether we like it or not though Bush is more influential than any computer game developer..... Or Borat...

He is rather popular in South Korea and Japan ... now let me guess the poll was conducted via the internet and which country has one of the highest broadband penetration ???.

Could it be South Korea ???. ;).

Well deduced Tibby, but a company like Time should really be adding weightings to their polls to stop this type of idiocy happening...
