A Bloggers view of Google Finance- Still a C-
There were expected upgrades but I'm not able to detect them. The uttility to an investor after a few weeks of blogging is not much better now than on day one. Missing are the many specifics as found on mostly Yahoo and lesser so on MSN. Specifically there are very few links to bloggers postings to be found on Google blog search. Also there are few blogger comments to other bloggers posting than one would get from Yahoo message boards or even other mesaage board sites. Basically my 50 years of experience is not enhanced as much by Google Finance as I would have expected. The solution would be for Google to emulate some of the other financial sites rather than just blazing new search engine mentalities. They need to add folks with market & financial savvy rather than internet search specialists? I still have faith that Google will pursue this new venture and will improve sometime in the future? Pete.. PS Bloggers, post your comments.

No I don't think so. My competency level and access to information is not such that I should or could feel as U stated. Did you have that feeling?? If so I would be making a mistake. Some say that bloggers mostly get few comments and that is my case so far. I need to do a better quality of blogging and be informative and interesting or little traffic/comments. Thanks for expressing yourself Appreciate your comments. I'm only hoping to find bloggers of like interest in exchanging investment ideas. Do you blog? Pete
Maria, CNBC, on PM 5/1 said she talked to the Fed Chief and his opinion given to the Congress was misread. The stock immediately gave back over 50 points. Good breaking news Maria. More intrigue about rates. What are your comments? Thanks Pete
Few weeks later my opinion of Google Finance is worse, Rating from a C- to D-. After a frusterating month on Google Finance and looking for alternate sites my opinion of Yahoo finance hs gone from a C to a B. The biggest negative about Yahoo is inconsistency, the amount of down time is terrible and their is no explaination provided. Without or little explaniation from Yahoo. Much time is wasted checking one's own system or commands/entries. HELP ! Anyone with opinions about the quality of other financial sites? Thanks Pete
