Battle Of the Internet Giants: Watch Internet Companies Profit in Realtime

It’s hard to imagine how much money Internet giants like Apple and Google pull in, but this site can help. It shows a realtime counter, from the moment you opened the page, of how much money various tech giants have made. It’s an estimate, but stunning nonetheless.

It all comes back to how the Internet takes shape, so pay attention and follow the money.
