RSSFT: Google Founders 'Men of the Year'
By the Betanews Staff | Published December 23, 2005, 1:30 PM
Time Magazine may have selected Bill and Melinda Gates along with Bono as its "Persons of the Year" for their efforts in helping to fight diseases in developing countries, but the Financial Times has chosen Microsoft's rivals Sergey Brin and Larry Page -- the founders of Google -- as its "Men of the Year."
The FT says it chose the two for their success in 2005 and ambitions to make the world a better place. "The Men of the Year recognition reflects the effect the company created by Mr Brin and Mr Page only seven years ago has had on internet users, as well as the worlds of business and technology, in the past 12 months," the paper said.
So what - ? - !

I've a feeling that a hypothetical bootleg video of a hypothetical honeymoon between them-- would still outdraw the equivalent Bill & Melinda offering...
The PR would be enormous... so, which subsequent logo edit would be cooler?
1. the two o's in Google being morphed into a 6 & 9... OR:
2. an animated MS-- the letters turning into two stick figures(the type we drew as infants, adding a head, hands & feet to) copulating, we then hear a female voice right on the verge-- when suddenly the male letter freezes solid. We then hear a whining,"AAArrrggghh!! Keep moving, what's the matter with you???", followed by her partner's,"Sorry, I have to reboot. We'll have to start all over."
For better effect, this could be played in an endless loop.
Cast your votes, now folks-- they will entitle you to entry in a special drawing:
1st prize: a date with me
2nd prize: two dates with me
3rd prize: three dates with me
& so on & so forth down to 1000th place.
Disclaimer to all non-females:
I can get extremely homophobic-- to avoid any potential complications, all male winners are advised to disguise themselves in drag as best they can.

Yeah, all news seems to be MS vs. Google, or IE vs. Firefox lately.
Not that it is, but it sure seems that way.
