Forbes released its annual list of the Global 2000 this week with a number of Indian companies on the list. The largest Indian company (Reliance Industries) checks in at #193. What's interesting is the top 8 out of 10 Indian companies are all "old industry" (steel, utilities, oil and gas), with only two communication comapnies representing New India. I suspect this will change in 5 years, but for now the old industries still rule.

Hi
Great stuff...
Have you promoted this blog on Fast Pitch!(www.fastpitchnetworking.com)? It's an online business network that has as one of it's features a way to promote your blog to their audience of small business owners.
FP was actually just named Website of The Week by MSNBC's 'Your Business' show for small business owners.
If you're already on another network (LinkedIn, etc.) - no problem. Fast Pitch! takes a completely different approach. Compare Networks: http://www.fastpitchnetworking.com/comapre.cfm
Keep up the good work!
