Partypoker for stock trading
How many real estate tycoons learned their trade by playing monopoly? Raise your hand.
MarketWatch just launched a virtual stock exchange. Go to MarketWatch to check it out. If so moved to jump in and test your trading skills against others - like yours truly -- you can sign up and create your own personal portfolio. For those who play poker, it's a lot like Partypoker.net - which claims to be the world's largest online poker school. These virtual games are a good way to learn about trading/betting without losing your shirt. That said, virtual games don't give you the same real-life anxieties that affect your decisions. For instance, did you learn how to buy real estate by playing monopoly? Anyway, I'd like to set up a couple portfolios. One will consist of picks from the blogosphere. If you have any ideas, send them my way.
For MarketWatch's weekend show - aired on CBS - I'll be doing a review of the plethora of video channels on the Web. I'm taking a survey of what people like to watch, where they're watching (mobile phone, computer screens in living rooms), and if there are any drawbacks that make the videos less appealing (ads!).
We release a daily one minute trivia challenge at 88SLIDE.com, and have found out that MOST of our viewers watch us on our Web site (88slide.com), then via YouTube, then via video iPod, and then via mobile phone.
Personally - I watch most of my video via iTunes, as I like to download a number of video podcasts and literally just go down the queue...
I'm waiting for online video to stream to my wristwatch. Casio, are you reading this?

Mostly that’ s because most people don’ t realize how many skills they do have. If you have office skills, for example, you may be able to find work as a virtual assistant. If you have transportation you might try mystery shopping , although it can.
