Really? This counts as journalism these days?

No, but it counts as selling eyeballs to advertisers, which is the business Time is in. It's the same business all magazines are in.

The sad thing is I found the list far more interesting than the article. Hint: If your going to rant about something as a waste of time don't let it upstage you're job.

And "25 things" is great for eyeballs.

My 25 things post on my blog has ended up #2 in Google for "25 things about me" and I am getting 200 or so visits a day to that post.

Now, I am not monetizing my blog and don't gain anything from the traffic, but it is interesting to see how much attention this meme is getting all of the sudden. Especially since it is nothing new.
