My 2008 Predictions for Financial Catastrophe

We won't see anything this dramatic happen. Markets would be halted and heads of industry/government would meet behind closed doors to work things out. Interesting read though.

AOL Money & Finance Surpasses Yahoo Finance, MSN Money For Top Portal Spot

Lisa was spot on about the linking to Bloomberg, etc being the real reason for the jump. Yahoo Finance is still king in usability (have you looked at how cluttered the AOL quote pages are?). As far as Google goes, I don't think they have rolled out enough features to justify the hype. I just don't get what they are trying to do, they are usually good at topping competitor offerings with better features (ex: gmail) but their finance site isn't that much different from Yahoo's.
