YouTube is Time's

invention of year

BY BILL HUTCHINSON

DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

The breakthrough that turns home movies into Internet blockbusters is Time magazine's Invention of the Year.

YouTube, which sparked a revolution by allowing Joe Schmoes everywhere to get their 15 nanoseconds of Web fame, beat out a supereconomical car and a soldier-saving robot for the eye-opening honor.

"Only YouTube created a new way for millions of people to entertain, educate, shock, rock and grok one another on a scale we've never seen before," Time's editors wrote in the issue hitting newsstands this week. "The rules are different now, and one Web site changed them: YouTube." The computer innovation is the brainchild of Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim, who went from Silicon Valley geeks to ultrarich geniuses when they sold YouTube to Google for $1.65 billion.
