I like Merlin too. Although Prince Ali Wadeed was looking might attractive today... nah, stick with the market magician theme.

The Viking graphic would make a great avatar for Fly.

One Disqus system is worth ten Twitter systems on the boca value scale.

If it looks and acts like we're blowing up ... maybe we are.

I'm just not seeing that there's a catalyst on the horizon for a serious bounce.

My guess is we wallow around in the mud for a while.

A long time ago you used to get points just for making a response (unless that was Howard who gave me points just for responding hah). The system looks a different now, somewhat like karma like 4FL3X mentioned, although I'm not sure how you see total points.

The Riddle: The Second Book of Pellinor by Allison Croggon

here it is on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Riddl...

Just to make this stock-related, because we're having entirely too much fun with the new Disqus setup....

the sales on BKS have dropped off a cliff, apparently the same cliff EBAY and AMZN tumbled over.

Never fear, you're in no danger of being a curmudgeon Shed, I ought to know because I live with one.

Yep, like that Yoda avatar LOL.

Of course, you know my avatar is from the front cover of a fantasy book, right?

I can't load Disqus from my handheld Nokia tablet computer, have to be on one of my regular PC's.

Oh, it's totally 100 percent true, claims Boca, the housewife turned stock trader and avid blog reader.

Good stuff!

Original meaning of the word avatar was quite interesting.

You don't seriously think I carry a sword and pose in a godforsaken artic fantasy landscape in real life do you? I like my avatar and it's staying.

Not everyone's vision of the Internet and social media is the same. I know, I know... I'm banned :)

Re: Working on Stocktwits

boca — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:36:50 -0000

I had a feeling you were working on StockTwits. I've been aware of the site ever since Howard and Soren starting working on it.

I'd like to talk to you more about this later, right now unfortunately a city water pipe is flooding the front of my property hah. Thanks.

Re: Working on Stocktwits

boca — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:46:52 -0000

Very interesting. What do you foresee as a goal for the site?

Re: Georgian Conflict

boca — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 19:34:19 -0000

Agreed, very crazy shit in Georgia today, very sad too. Great pictures.

I like your blog a lot, you have a lot of interesting things to say. You did ask for comments on the redesign though. The stripes distract me from the message of your photos and text. Maybe I'm just not a stripe-y person, and I hope that wasn't too forward.

Great post Howard, totally agree. You're on a roll lately, getting to the heart of the matter.

Re: If Jason Calacanis is a Somebody I would Rather be a Nobody

Dude, who cares about Jason Calacanis in the stock world? I mean, have you SEEN Mahalo? <grin>

Digg is ok though, a little strange, but ok.

Well I'm glad to know Cramer reads you, Howard. Now if only he could work on comprehension of your topics, that would be lovely. I'll take your content + misspellings over Cramer's zillionth bottom call anyday.

The only use I have for Cramer in this market is as a contrary indicator.

Jeff K doesn't need to read a book, he just stares down the cover until the book gives up the information voluntarily.

Cheers, Jeff.

Great photo. Who are the other two people who were in the picture with you?

Re: FriendFeed.com…Let Me Explain

boca — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:29:17 -0000

Oh, and all my Disqus comments are fed directly to the public Friend Feed comment flow. LOL.

Re: FriendFeed.com…Let Me Explain

boca — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:26:42 -0000

Sorry, I have to disagree, I really like FriendFeed. I don't even need to subscribe to Michael Arrington's feed, I just read the stuff that comes through on the FF "flow". Very interesting, that "flow" of comments. In certain ways it's very different conceptually from Twitter. Stable platform, too. Oh, and management talks to you and tries to implement new features.

Please don't throw oranges or tomatoes at me *ducks*

PS you must be feeling rowdy tonight Howard

Maybe (a big maybe) XLV.

If (big if) tech has a nice correction over next month or two, XLK.

Is this where I admit that I watch all of Don Harrold's videos? I'm a sucker for a southern accent, plus he enjoys taking a poke at Cramer's absurdities, not to mention the pure entertainment value -- he's a must watch. :-)

Seriously I think there is majorly large Pro-Ron Paul, Anti-Fed group on YouTube and they all seem to love Don Harrold. Good for him for grabbing the audience.
