England - The Brits really like Google. That's the word today from the Superbrands Council, which says Google is officially the UK's most popular consumer brand of the year.
Google beats out Microsoft, Mercedes-Benz, the BBC and British Airways, which collectively made up the top five brands in the country.
Superbrands polled 2,000 British people asking them to rank their top 500 favorite brands.
The company is beating out Silicon Valley heavyweights like Yahoo at number 75, it's own YouTube at 239 and Palo Alto-based Facebook at 358.
