Top 40 most important companies

Wired creates top companies list every year. They have certain criteria in finalizing the list. They explain this way:

"What makes a company wired? We start by looking for the basics: strategic vision, global reach, killer technology. But that’s not enough. To land a spot on our annual Wired 40 list, a business also needs the X-factor – a hunger for new ideas and an impatience to put them into practice"


Some interesting facts from the current wired40 list.
  • Google replaced Apple in the numero uno spot
  • Yahoo unmoved in its 5th place
  • Infosys is at the 11th place, yes u read that correct. What more surprising to me was, it actually slipped 2 places from the last year's rating.
  • And then comes the big brother Microsoft, at the 36th place.
  • Some of the companies slid out of the 40 list are Nokia, Dell, Pixar and Vodafone

the complete list can be read on Wired
