  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    I agree, could care less about the narcisissts addicted to Facebook and Twitter, but notice that Seeking Alpha has the "Publish to Facebook or Twitter" check box for "Add Your Comment".

    It's a bandwagon, and people are currently jumping on it, so they are making it relevant for the time being. Remember MySpace? AOL screen names? Betamax?

    Yeah...me too.

    LOL! Yeah, good sarcasm.

    Everything is just fine kids, ignore that funnel cloud and the air raid sirens and go out and play.

    Unemployment improving...yeah right...just like bank and company profits now that they have taxpayer money and are firing taxpayers to "make" money.

    The comeuppance will be shocking.
