WorldPay Zinc has created a live tracking website that displays tech company profits by the second. The site features the world's largest corporations like Google, [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-game-streaming), [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elon-musk-and-x), [Microsoft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edge-copilot), Samsung, Sony and eBay, and shows how much annual revenue each of the tech-giants generate, along with profits.

It interactively shows viewers the stats by running a clock, which can be stopped and started at any time, that is located at the top of the page. As the clock runs, the companies' wealth "grows." Not surprisingly, Apple is one of the fastest growing companies, pulling in approximately $10,000 USD a second in revenues.

Most of the companies generate wealth extremely quickly, but surprisingly, Twitter does not; the social media company generates revenue, but has negative profit margins.
