Steve Job or Mark Zuckerberg? Read on before taking our one-question poll.
TIME named Mark Zuckerberg as the Person of the Year 2010. The magazine explained, “For connecting more than half a billion people and mapping the social relations among them; for creating a new system of exchanging information; and for changing how we all live our lives, Mark Elliot Zuckerberg is TIME’s 2010 Person of the Year.”
On the other hand, the Financial Times gave the honor to Steve Jobs.
“When Steven Paul Jobs first hit the headlines, he was younger even than Mark Zuckerberg is now. Long before it was cool to be a nerd, his formative role in popularising the personal computer, and Apple’s initial public offering on Wall Street – which came when Mr Jobs was still only 25 – made him the tech industry’s first rock star.”

I think even if Steven Jobs was sublime this year with the IPAD, I think Marc deserve it more, because He is changing the entire world…
Passion makes the difference

Apple is changing the entire world with its products. it depends on how you see it. i like both. but i prefer Steve or Mark. but i can totally understand why people chose Mark. 2010 is simply incredible for him and facebook
Everyone knows both Time and FT wimped out – like it or hate it, the biggest story with the largest impact was WikiLeaks – Julian Assange should've won both hands down. Also, Kinect outsold the iPad in weeks and immersive games will have a much bigger 'change the world' impact than tablets or anything out of Cupertino.
IMHO, if it was a choice between the two, Zuckerberg waaay easy over the 'cult of Steve Jobs'
Steve Jobs!
