Twitter: The New Bloomberg?

[Gabriel117]

I had mentioned this idea in another thread. It seems I'm late. Someone is doing this already. Check out this blog - Twitter is the new Bloomberg.

I used to work for a financial publishing firm. We had TV sets all over the office all tuned to Bloomberg, all day.

Pretty interesting application of Twitter. I like the way that it can be used to distribute text so widely.

A very interesting concept for those who use Twitter. Actually, it may be the best reason that I have seen yet.

Interesting use of Twitter.

I think Bloomberg has a service for Blackberry users, but that's paid service - part of the $1,800+ monthly subscription. Now with Twitter, people can get some of it for much less or even for free and you don't have to have a Blackberry.

I like it and I do follow different trends on it. I saw someone mention they bought BUCY on Nasdaq at 19$. It went to ~28 shortly after but now it's down again. Definitely a great way to keep updated with info. I may start doing more of that now. This got me thinking.

Great share; thank you!

This is a good example of why I am so adamant about using forums. You can be exposed to so many great resources and options that you might otherwise miss.
