Cool project. I can’t help but wonder if this is more of a list of who’s great at viral marketing rather than favorite products. I’m not doubting that the products on here are good.

For a particular product, sure - but that doesn't matter if the company makes enough money off of that product first, and then releases another one and starts the cycle over again. The company's reputation, meanwhile, takes far longer to decline than that of an individual product, especially if information transfer between buyers is low (which seems to be the case for most casual consumer markets, i.e. not business and professional).
