mitchell on the cover of time magazine
It's already been reported around town that Mitchell was selected as one of the TIME "world's 100 most influential people." I thought you all might be interested in seeing the actual magazine. Click the images to see a larger version.
I can't express how proud we all are of the achievements of the last couple of years and there's no one that deserves more of the credit for that than our Chief Lizard Wrangler, Mitchell Baker. Congratulations, Mitchell. Now, how do we get you on Oprah!

Posted by: Coward on April 14, 2005 01:15 AM(Anonymous) Coward, that's a stupid remark. Mitchell *is* a woman.
Posted by: jhermans on April 14, 2005 01:24 AMlol, hence the hair and why "herself" was used in the article. ;)

Posted by: motobass on April 14, 2005 06:35 AMThis is a great achievement!
After looking at some of the other faces on the cover I have to question some of Time's choices, however. Are Johnny Depp and Quentin Tarantino, as great as they may be, really that influential?
Posted by: Jeff on April 14, 2005 09:41 AMWhat's the achievement? Being in the 'Time' list or influencing people? The person who influenced me to Firefox is the author of the Greasemonkey extension. There may be individuals with influence in the world, but I don't think the list is to reward sucessful marketers or promoters. Or office managers come to that.

Kind of amazing that Mitchell grabbed such an honor...its gonna look great on her Curriculum Vitae ;)
