Agile Development ranks #18 on CNN

That's an interesting find for everything you loves agile development practices. CNN Money has ranked "agile" #18 on its "Top 50 Who Matter Now" list. That might get the agile idea on the radar of more business people. So in general it's a good thing.

Unfortunately they use "A new approach to Web-based code" as their second headline and connect "agile" to web-based services in the text. That might cause the business person reading this to believe that "agile" is something limited to everything web while in fact it's simply a way of doing all kinds of projects and not even software alone.
