Want to know the top 25 venture capital firms? The best cities
for small business? The 500 largest companies in India? Access this
kind of information free of charge at this site, thanks to
Gary Price, a librarian at George Washington University in
Washington, DC. Price has gathered links to hundreds of lists that
have appeared in magazines and newspapers in the past year or so.
While many lists are business-related, others are more popular
(most common baby names in 1999, for example) and some are esoteric
(the top optical laboratories). A drawback to this site: It takes
time to sort through it-but do it anyway. Whatever you need
to know for market research purposes is tucked into some corner of
this site.
