Stocktwits will have arrived when other services are built upon its ability to not only identify and aggregate around tickers, but add...

When I look at and listen to McCain wax about the good old days of Truman, create jokes based upon Beach Boys lyrics, refer to his supporters as prisoners, launch attacks based...

Is Effort a Myth?
superamit:
Here’s a bootstrapper’s/marketer’s/entrepreneur’s/fast-rising executive’s effort diet. Go through the list and decide whether or not it’s worth it. Or make up your own diet. Effort is a choice, at least make it on purpose:
