SocialPicks - search stocks in real-time..


SocialPicks is a community for stock market investors to share investment ideas, exchange market research, and track peers' investment performance - in brazen terms it's a social network for finance gurus. SocialPick's platform also powers Reuters Stock Buzz.

As is common with most financial sites (cnnmoney, yahoo finance, etc) - the user experience is much improved when you offer autocomplete on the ticker symbols. As such, PredictAd and SocialPicks hooked up to do just that. The bottom line is that an instant stock ticker is a must have feature for all finance sites. I'm sure even the Warren Buffet's of the world forget a ticker symbol here and there. With PredictAd, SocialPicks is not only giving its users a great stock search tool, but its doing it while creating an additional advertising medium as well.
