Stockhouse
Jennifer Griffin, Website, December 10, 2007.

The creator of this site is a longtime friend of mine. So I'm really pleased to be able to recommend it, even if it is not strictly an education site. Stockhouse is a type of online community that encourages discussion on the stock market and employs a variety of social networking and community features to manage the discussion. Note the very interesting variation of tag cloyds used to indicate the most popular topics of discussion. Note the multi-featured reputation management display for contributors. The entire site is dynamic, the display of information intended to be relevant and up-to-date. This really is a marvel of design, one educators should study closely.

Comes up fine on my Windows machine. Won't load on the Mac with Firefox or Safari. Too bad as it looks really good, but the family stock guy is the Mac user.
