Behind Google (who have taken the top spot) Apple and IBM!

MS rose above Mcdonalds, Coca Cola and AT&T.

Interesting stuff. Saw Google over took Apple a couple days ago as it was on all the Android sites, but I don't really get how this is measured.

 

Can't peek at doc right now.. are Sony/Nintendo on the list?

Amazon at number 10! Nice work to both them and MS!!!
I thought Apple would take the number slot, not too surprised they were usurped by Google though.

Coke has been passed down a bit in recent years hasn't it. Remember they used to be all the way at the top

Well done Microsoft.

Surprised to see IBM so high though, haven't heard anythng about them for a while now.

They do a lot of outside the media big corporation stuff.

Wouldn't doubt it! Windows, Server, SQL, and other Enterprise solutions make them crazy powerful since so many people depend on their OS from a both Enterprise and Consumer standpoint

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

They sure are powerful! There is a saying though: "The bigger they are, the harder they fall". Hope it never comes true for Microsoft!
