Stockwire.com: A myspace for investors - or just plain ol’good?
January 31, 2007 | Posted by InvestorBlogger | Comments Off
I recently registered for a Microcap website called stockwire.com with the long appellate The MySpace for the Penny Stock investor! So it’s kind of a mouthful!
Registration was a real bliss. At first I thought there was going to be an annoying video ad, but the ad/commentary/registration was wonderfully simple and effective. Stockwire.com is a Penny Stock website that is primarily focused on the Micro Cap and Small Cap investor.
The forums are small but effective. I love the simple video tutorials, stock profiles, and blog sections. I don’t generally recommend buying over the counter stocks like these because volatility and fluidity are generally issues in penny stocks. In other words you can get seriously burned by lack of information. With any luck, Stockwire.com could help to bridge the information gap with accurate reporting, and discussion in its pages.
Naturally, all investors should do their own Due Diligence before purchasing any stock found on this or any other information source!

How much is your website worth?
January 31, 2007 | Posted by InvestorBlogger | Comments Off
I recently came across an interesting discussion: I don’t think there’s much of a conclusion yet. On Payperpost’s boards, a writer asks this question: Would you sell a site for $1,000 or just keep working it?
What is interesting in this is that the author is trying to sell a website that he has created. I’d like to know how it turns out, esp. the financials.
Two sides of Email: the nasty and the pleasant…
January 31, 2007 | Posted by InvestorBlogger | Comments Off
Today, I got two rather different emails. I’ll include them both. In both of them, the similarities are quite obvious: mostly they are both likely automatically generated, and sent to hundreds or thousands of recipients.
The pleasant (Ad network name changed):
Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you for applying to join the **** Advertisement Network. We have reviewed http://www.investorblogger.com and appreciate the time and effort you have invested to create a quality environment for your visitors. However, we are unable to approve your site as a publisher on our network at this time. We very much appreciate your interest in our company and wish you best of luck in your endeavors.
Sincerely,
***
Nicely done, thanks, guys. I’d like to be refused like that more often, wouldn’t you?
The nasty (posted as received, minus address):ÂÂ
THE COCA COLA COMPANY, etc.
