World's Most Influential People

The complete list of the World's Most Influential People has been published by TIME magazine. What a waste.

There is no ranking, rather, the magazine's editors appear to have plopped celebrity names onto a page in no particular order. There are five categories which appear largely interchangeable; revolutionaries, heroes & pioneers, scientists & thinkers, artists & entertainers, and builders & titans.

The list is a gimmick to bump impulse readership, I think. Otherwise, it has no value. Ignore it.
