Time magazine has released it's third-annual list of the 25 most influential people on the internet.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, President Donald Trump has made the list, as has John Legend's Twitter-happy wife Chrissy Teigen and the maker of Pepe the Frog, one of the most widely used memes online.

The editors of Time said they 'sized up contenders by looking at their global impact on social media and their overall ability to drive news'.

In other words, when these people tweet, they're not just weighing in on the news - they're making it.

Scroll down to see who was included on this year's unranked list.

Chrissy Teigen - Model, host of Lip Sync Battle, cookbook writer, wife of John Legend

Chrissy Teigen is a model and the wife of musician John Legend. But her quick wit and knack for taking down internet trolls have turned her into a bonafide Twitter celebrity.

She now has more than five million followers on the network, where she posts cooking videos, photos of her daughter Luna and tastefully tipsy accounts of the many award shows she attends on the arm of her husband.

Her relateable posts have helped her lock down two cook book deals and a hosting gig on Lip Sync Battle.
