Weeks after recent revamps to Facebook profile pages were the subject of a 60 Minutes interview with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, TIME Magazine named the 26-year-old their Person of the Year.

The article that accompanies TIME’s announcement, discusses Zuckerberg’s contribution to technology & social media by highlighting the major changes that the Internet has gone through in the past 10 years and how Facebook has been evolving at an even faster speed in less than 7 years. In the grand scheme of things, nearly half of all American’s have a Facebook account and as the article states so concisely, “We have entered the Facebook age, and Mark Zuckerberg is the man who brought us here.”

While the title of Person of the Year is devoted to the toddler-CEO himself, it’s quite possible that if Facebook could speak for itself, it might just give Zuckerberg a run for his 2010 crown. “Your Facebook membership is becoming the Internet equivalent of a passport: a tool for verifying your identity,” the article reads. Essentially, when a patient reviews your practice on Doctorbase, they’ll first sign into Facebook as a way to identify themselves as the reviewers, the review will be featured in the news feed of the patient’s friends, essentially referring your practice to their hundreds of Facebook friends. Now that seems like a bigger force to be reckoned with than a 20-something Harvard dropout, no?
