Google Tops Superbrands List

Carmaker, broadcasting corporation, and Microsoft trail

Superbrand tosh

I live in the UK. For American readers the superbrand judges are a bunch of London based advertising luvvies completely out of touch with ordinary - and particularly young - consumers.

Ok, I don't have a problem with Google being credited as the no.1 brand in the UK. However, I find the whole superbrand concept complete tosh. The comparison between brands in completely different categories is simply meaningless. Is BA such a superbrand when even given the price differential easyjet is a more reliable airline for shorthaul destinations?  Is Mercedes such a superbrand when long term Mercedes' owners despair at the fall in quality and reliability? The superbrand judges need to get out more.

What did they based this

What did they based this on?  Logo? name recognition?

Official definition

The official definition: "A Superbrand has established the finest reputation in its field. It offers customers significant emotional and tangible advantages over other brands, which (consciously or sub-consciously) customers want and recognise."

I guess this only further

I guess this only further proves the popularity of Google over other web companies.
