The list they offer?  Some make a lot of sense, such as Jeff Bezos, or the Google guys… but putting Slide, Facebook, Digg, Twitter, Friendfeed or Flickr is kind of ridiculous people, no?

Microsoft’s Ray Ozzie
Google’s Sergey Brin and Larry Page
Amazon’s Jeff Bezos
Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg
Salesforce.com’s Marc Benioff
Slide’s Max Levchin
Digg’s Kevin Rose
Twitter’s Evan Williams
Flickr’s Stewart Butterfield and Caterina Fake
FriendFeed’s Paul Buchheit and Bret Taylor

Maybe I am just becoming an old fart… but that’s laughable.  Might as well put up Fred Flintstone and Buju Banton while we’re at it.
