It's that time of the year again, when Time releases their list of the top 100 Most Influential People of the last year or so.
Some of the entries this year are no surprise - Mark Zuckerberg, Colin Firth, Julian Assange, a racy picture of "Tiger Mom" Amy Chua...
Some more surprising include: Angry Birds creator Peter Vesterbacka, Glee's Chris Colfer, Aussie actress Mia Wasikowska, PBS's Rebecca Eaton (who has had a hand in producing many of the acclaimed period dramas of recent years), and Pastor Rob Bell, of Nooma fame. Justin Bieber has replaced Lady Gaga as the headline influential pop artist, reflecting current trends.
This could make for interesting class discussion. You might even compile a class list of the people considered by the class to be the most influential.
