Christopher Null, over at PC World, has painstakingly put together a list of the 50 most important people on the web.  I can’t even imagine the amount of time and research it must have taken to make this list, and how you can narrow it down to 50.  It seems that each week a handful of new names climb the ladder.

Here are the top five:

1. Eric Schmidt, Larry Page, and Sergey Brin
Executives, Google

2. Steve Jobs, CEO, Apple

3. Bram Cohen, Cofounder, BitTorrent

4. Mike Morhaime, President, Blizzard Entertainment

5. Jimmy Wales, Founder, Wikipedia
