Forbes recently released a new Stocks application that allows you to add stocks that you are watching to your profile. All in all it is practically useless. Features include the ability to see which of your friends are tracking the same stocks and links to Forbes. If you want to get news, quotes, or earnings information for any stock you add then you will have to follow a link to Forbes. Honestly, it’s not a very clever way of driving traffic to their site, but apparently 7,000 users found the application intriguing enough to add it to their profile. I’m still waiting on an application that displays a ticker on your profile before I place my stock wish list on the site. If you are interested in using the Forbes Stocks application then go check out the application page.
