MarketWatch Goes the Facebook Way

Via mediainfo - Popular financial and news service MarketWatch.com has drawn inspiration from Facebook in its latest launch of MarketWatch Community. The community is pretty similar to Facebook and enables registered users to create profiles & friend networks. Users can also share news, commentary and price predictions of stocks.

The service is going to have a widget towards right of every article which would provide latest views of business news, stocks and finance related topics. Jim Bernad, MarketWatch General Manager said that registered users can track and organize their community activity on profile pages, which can be personalized with pictures and other information.

He also mentioned that beta testing results have been positive and shown increase in user loyalty, satisfaction, and length of visitors.
