Why Small Companies Will Win in This Economy (blogs.harvardbusiness.org)

Corporations with cash will also continue acquiring those small companies, everyone wins.

It drives me nuts that 10+ years with this crazy web of ours and newspapers/magazines still haven't figured out how to either a) automatically link to websites/URLs mentioned or b) make sure the producer copying and pasting does it themselves

This still seems pretty counter-intuitive to me. I would think that large businesses would be preferred over smaller ones in a down economy, because clients/customers would be worried that small shops could go under. Likewise, larger businesses would feel a greater urgency to spend more personal time with clients/customers to avoid losing them.
