That's why some minimum criteria should be applied. Otherwise,
it only need to ask this to netcraft, and dump it in HTML. No point.

Google, Yahoo, LVMH or Danone using PHP are better example than any
unknown dot-com, or small  business.

Anyhow, no much names until now.

Here are a few others, all of them are in the CAC40 index, from the 
paris stockmarket :
