“If a picture is worth a thousand words, here’s five grand worth of Apple (AAPL) news in charts and lists released over the past couple of days,” Phillip Elmer-Dewitt reports for Fortune.
Elmer-Dewitt covers:
1. Web Brands. Apple scored No. 10 in Nielson Online’s ranking of the top Web brands based on the number of unique visitors each site drew in December 2008.
2. Social Brands. The iPhone scored No. 1 — ahead even of its parent company at No. 3 — in the Vitrue 100, a new ranking of blue chip brands by how often they get mentioned in blogs, photo-sharing sites and such social media entities.
3. Days to 1 Million. The rate at which the leading smartphones achieved the market penetration milestone of 1 million units. Apple’s iPhone 3G crushed all comers.
4. Volume vs. Revenue. CounterNotions’s Kontra shows that what matters is not how many smartphones you sell, but how much you make on each sale.
5. Stock Price. Finally, a glance at Apple’s share price, which having suffered a thousand cuts in the past year finally picked up a little traction in the past two weeks.
See the charts in all of their sexy glory here.
