Nice graph, except there's virtually nothing that's worth more than Apple.

Interesting. Just went and looked and was surprised to find that only one company is valued more than Apple in the US markets. Exxon Mobil (382B) > Apple (307B).

Exxon is the only company bigger than Apple anywhere in the world, apparently. Apple recently overtook the former world #2 company, PetroChina:

I interpreted this graph to mean broofa was implying that Facebook in the long run could achieve that kind of valuation, not that there were other companies with that valuation now.
