It wasn't mentioned specifically, but those of us in the know understand that this Time article applies as much, or more, to Squidoo as it does to anyone, any group, anywhere.
Allow me to quote: "It's about the many wresting power from the few and helping one another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also change the way the world changes."
Its a huge responsibility AND a huge need. Wresting power from the few with all the money and influence, power and coldness, is a proud American tradition and heritage.
So your small lenses, your small shops, your small blogs or websites, and your small purchases, will add up to one of the greatest changes global society has ever seen.
This is what Seth means when he says, "Small is the New Big." The better your small piece of 'real estate' on Squidoo, or on the web, the better this change will be.

I am a big supporter of Squidoo and the power of the web. However,
I have a different take on the TIME Person of the Year pick this year.
I wrote the following letter to TIME -
Dear Time,
Your choice for Person of the Year 2006 is beyond ridiculous.
Not only because "You" is not a "Person", but it is a total cop out. I expected more...
This choice even surpasses your previous goof when you picked the Computer as "Person of the Year".
Time to go back to the drawing board or get rid of this time honored tradition.
Respectfully,
