| How they describe themselves:
SocialPicks is a Silicon-Valley based startup changing the way stock investors discuss and share ideas on the Web. SocialPicks tracks the implied Sharpe Ratio of financial bloggers and provides a stage for the rock-star investors next door to shine. On the internet, the quality of financial content runs the gamut from professional writers, to provocative bloggers, to snake-oil salesmen on traditional forums. With its track-record system and collaborative features, SocialPicks community enables stock investors to not only decide what to pay attention to, but collaborate with each other much more effectively.
SocialPicks recently announced a partnership with Reuters for its Stock Buzz social network product. SocialPicks is backed by Bay Partners, Y Combinator, and prominent Silicon Valley angels, including the founders of social networks such as Bebo and HotorNot.
