Oh yeah — check out that data!
While TechCrunch and the Wall Street Journal may have mentioned it, it seems that we haven’t. About a month ago we celebrated our two-year anniversary with an awesome new data and news engine for the site. Check it out!
Unlike other sites that simply fill your screen up with a thicket of raw numbers, Data Central provides insightful visualizations of a company’s most important metrics. In other words, we don’t just tell you what Google’s P/E is, we show you how it’s P/E, Advertising Revenue, and Market Share stack up to those of Yahoo and Microsoft.
This is data you can’t get anywhere else. And as always, all of our charts are embeddable! For more information, check out our video introduction to Data Central.
Another new improvement to the site are the newsfeeds you’ll find on nearly any wiki article. Our newsfeed is smart - important stories are determined with a rich relevance engine, and not just with the appearance of a ticker. This means you won’t get bombarded with fifty unrelated stories that don’t deserve your attention. Try it out on companies like our Exxon Mobil page, but keep in mind you can also use it for interesting concepts such as “unemployment“, “corn“, or the “Federal Reserve.”
Hope you enjoy the new stuff!
