News Flash

What do you guys think of the news flash box on the right hand side?

Like it? Useful? Silly?

If you haven't figured out what it is, well, it's, umm.. A box that displays news flashes; ie, latest news and happenings. Well, it's manually operated right now but I might automate it if it gets enough popularity.

Any thoughts appreciated.

    grey; umm. ok im with you on that but... you can still read it! i havent moved anything!

    anon; of course you are.

    its not news in general; ie, not anything and everything, only things that might seem really interesting.

    It's a good thing! I say keep it.
    Is it all about economics though? or general news?

    but it's useful either way:)

    I don't mind it at all, it can be useful!

    However, I'd say don't use a red font. It draws a lot of attention on it and might distract from the -great- posts. ;)

  16. Thanks for the input guys. I think i'll keep it, move it down a little, and only update it manually depending on news i think it relevant/important/useful.

    thanks again :)

I don't usually moderate comments, but recently i've been getting a ton of "buy viagra" "check out this search site" "buy casino chips online" related comment spam, so the moderation is back on. Don't take it personally.
