01[08:48] {Threei} cipher :)
[08:52] {jdetente} Good morning!
01[08:53] {Threei} jd :)
[09:00] {dino} gm
01[09:05] {Threei} dino :)
[09:16] {ese} morning
01[09:16] {Threei} ese :)
[09:16] {ese} D day for rimm............
01[09:16] {Threei} yes...
[09:16] {_bbobr} gm
01[09:17] {Threei} I have my suspicion about how it's going to go
01[09:17] {Threei} bbobr :)
[09:17] {ese} i'd like to see it do well........being a canadian company and all
[09:17] {ese} bb
01[09:18] {Threei} I'd like too, mostly because I don't like AAPL and iEverything
[09:18] {scottie} good morning
01[09:18] {Threei} but I am afraid RIMM lost its way for real and forever
01[09:18] {Threei} scottie :)
[09:18] {ese} ya.......i'm getting that way as well......even though i'm on apple
[09:19] {ese} scottie
[09:19] {scottie} ese
01[09:19] {Threei} see? why are you not on BB, even though it's canadian company and all :)
[09:19] {ese} maybe........at least it's not crooked like Nortel was.......
01[09:20] {Threei} well... let's hope it's not
01[09:20] {Threei} we might still find out later, lol
01[09:22] {Threei} US economy shrinks 0.1% in 4th quarter, 1st time in 3-1/2 years
[09:22] {ese} hmmmmmmm
01[09:22] {Threei} which takes us back to that debate...
01[09:22] {Threei} here is my verdict:
01[09:23] {Threei} the growth optimists pointed to was never there for one simple reason which is:
01[09:23] {Threei} you can't BUY growth
01[09:23] {Threei} and what was done by Fed and govt over these years was just that, attempt to buy it
01[09:24] {Threei} you inject money - economy grows,
01[09:24] {Threei} you stop injecting it - grows disappears,
01[09:24] {Threei} and what you left with is...
01[09:24] {Threei} your cue, ese
[09:24] {ese} lol
01[09:24] {Threei} here, let me help:
01[09:24] {Threei} DEBT
01[09:25] {Threei} ever growing debt with no economy growth
01[09:25] {Threei} private sector crowded out by goverment
01[09:25] {Threei} interest payments that will explode when rates rise
01[09:26] {Threei} and bond investors looking at all this hoopla with growing fear
01[09:26] {Threei} which will trigger rates rise when finally materializes.
01[09:26] {Threei} Tell me again how Fed action saved us
[09:30] {dptl} gm
01[09:30] {Threei} dp :)

[09:36] {cipher} cost l .56
[09:36] {cipher} out .69
01[09:36] {Threei} FCX two-sided
[09:37] {ese} what in H is he thinking..............ya vad.......brand new facebook graph searches
[09:38] {ese} have a read vad: Actual Facebook Graph Searches blog highlights creepy results by John Bowman Posted: January 23, 2013 2:19 PM Last Updated: January 23, 2013 2:29 PM Read 32 comments32 Categories: Community, Science & Technology
[09:38] {dino} f l .13
[09:39] {dino} e sm l .66
01[09:39] {Threei} it's uselless crap, IMO... but stalking app? you can call any search tool that to the same degree
01[09:40] {Threei} FCX 1 cent to 1:1
01[09:40] {Threei} let's trail to .49
01[09:41] {Threei} experiment, ese... google your name
01[09:41] {Threei} see what comes up
[09:41] {ese} Facebook's informational page about the new service includes examples showing how Graph Search works. Instead of searching for words and phrases, Facebook Graph Search allows you to search your Facebook network using categories such as "Music my friends like" or "Photos before 1980."
01[09:41] {Threei} 1:1
01[09:41] {Threei} half out
[09:42] {ese} You can also refine searches and link them together to find things like "Photos of my friends in New York," "Restaurants in London my friends have been to," or "People who like Cycling and are from my hometown."
[09:43] {ese} how bout this one:"all of my married co-workers who liked photos of women in bikinis"
[09:43] {cipher} FIRE L .26
[09:44] {ese} OR.......and you can let your imagination run after this:"people within five miles of X who have posted photos of toddlers"
[09:44] {cipher} out fire .58
[09:44] {ese} This article is avery interesting read...........am not on facebook and this just sealed it
01[09:44] {Threei} you realize of course that all that is simply a tool for seeing what people themselves posted online?
01[09:45] {Threei} you don't want it to be public - you don't post it
01[09:45] {Threei} you posted it - you made it public
01[09:46] {Threei} I am on FB, I post only things I don't mind to become visible
01[09:46] {Threei} someone can search for thwm - I am glad, that's what I posted them for
01[09:47] {Threei} there are people who bought my photos after seeing them on FB
01[09:47] {Threei} ditto for trading courses
01[09:47] {Threei} second half FCX stopped on a rail
01[09:47] {Threei} trail
[09:47] {ese} for sure...........what stuns me is why most people want thenselves to be public like that...............what are they looking for? I can't figure that part out.
01[09:48] {Threei} sure, that's idiocy
01[09:48] {Threei} but how is it a fault of search tool?
01[09:48] {Threei} again, google your name
[09:48] {cipher} CTXS L .84

[09:50] {dino} prxl hl l .85
[09:50] {ese} being public is scary to be honest..........I run 2 programs that are very public here with a reputation and in the last 4 years......i'm getting people recognizing me all over the place.....ie signed up with a new dentist yesterday........the dentist recognizes me from a show we did for her collegues last summer
[09:51] {cipher} tcbi l.40
[09:52] {ese} it takes you a back a little............it now happening a couple of times a week........it's a little unsettling to be honest
[09:52] {ese} actually...........i just say i know you vad to deflect all that attention to you
01[09:53] {Threei} give them my FB page and tell them to buy my photos {GG}
01[09:53] {Threei} http://photography.realitytrader.com/2013/01/best-of-2012.html
