CORRECTIONS: In our July 25 issue, Fortune erroneously omitted Chrysler Group
from the Global 500 list. With revenue of $41.9 billion, Chrysler ranks No. 205
among all the companies in the world and is 61st in the U.S. Further, once Chrysler
is added, Bristol-Myers Squibb, which had been No. 500, falls off the list. An
updated version of the Global 500 list, the rankings by country, and the list
of arrivals may be found at fortune.com/global500. Also, in the introduction to
the Global 500 identifying the next business hot spots, it was consultants from
Booz & Co., not Booz Allen Hamilton, who identified emerging innovation hubs.
And in "Don't Call It the Next Tech Bubble窶悩et" (July 25), Zetta.net, a data
backup and storage company, was misnamed Zetta.com. In addition, in The Briefing
(July 25), a caption for a photograph of Triton Logging's SHARC system described
it as removing trees in Lake Volta, Ghana; it was in Lois Lake in British Columbia.
Fortune regrets the errors.
