I'm constantly amazed at how poorly some companies are run. The only company on this list that has a grip on the future is Amazon. The business strategy they have been using seems to be working well.Even though they don't currently turn a profit they have tons of assets and a huge loyal customer base.

Does anyone notice that the above list basically lists anyone that's any good at selling on the web? By that, I mean, any company with decent customer service, good shipping times, and good product selection?
