next, they creat a coolest place for traders to hang out but soon they realize they could have just buy one instead

 

Rumors have it that Facebook is being valued at $100 per user by Yahoo (that's literally how they arrived at the billion dollar mark).

I may start a site that offers free porn, cognac and music downloads (legal).

 

It is official.

Free stock trades in 2 and a half weeks.

This thread has just converted me to religion.

 

Prediction: trades will start out free, be capped within 6 weeks at 10 trades a month, and will be "free" as in NetZero's concept of "free" within 6 months. At least they didn't call themselves TradeZero or something embarrassing like that when they have to change their minds.

Huh, will it be available for TradeBolt?

 

Good question.

 

I'll add to that prediction: trades will be market orders only.

 

Exactly. "Guaranteed fills" (2% away from the inside market).
