Eranet News,On December 25,2013----When it came to being mentioned by the press, Google was the top company in 2013, just edging out rival Apple.

Google received a lot of attention in the news every single month, but its highest month of mentions came in May. That's the month the company held its developers conference.

Apple's biggest month came in September, which is no surprise considering that's when the company was most active announcing and releasing new products.

That month it also released ios 7, its first major redesign to the software used in the iPhone and the ipad.

Once again coming up short against Google and Apple is Microsoft, which was the third most mentioned company of 2013 with more than 84,000 mentions. Its busiest month was in June, when it unveiled Windows 8.1, the latest version of its computer software.

It's not until fourth place that a non-tech company,  Bank of America with nearly 71,000 mentions, makes the list.
