B – Best Buy

C – Craigslist

D – Dictionary

E – Ebay

F – Facebook

G – Gmail (not Google? Well, I suppose if they’re already there.)

H – Hotmail

I – Ikea

J – Jimmy John’s (seems a bit Minnesota-centric, that result)

K – Kare 11 (sure enough!)

L – Lowe’s

M – Mapquest

N – Netflix

O – Orbitz

P – Pandora

Q – Qwest

R – REI

S – Star Tribune (Minnesota again)

T – Target

U – USPS (really?)

V – Valleyfair (local amusement park)

W – Weather

X – Xcel Energy

Y – YouTube
