Investopedia - Investing Education Encyclopedia

Investopedia (Investopedia.com) is one of the Internet's largest sites devoted entirely to investing education. Investopedia was started by Cory Janssen and Cory Wagner in June 1999 at the height of the internet stock boom as an unbiased source to learn about investing. Based in the city of Edmonton in Alberta, Canada, Investopedia has grown to become a well-respected source for financial information.

Investopedia had its beginning as a financial dictionary, separating itself from other dictionaries by offering the "Investopedia Says" feature—a plain English interpretation of hard to understand terms and concepts. Investopedia now averages over 2 million Page views a month and Investopedia is home to over 1,500 articles, 5,300 dictionary entries, and 750 pages of tutorials on nearly every aspect of finance and investing. Along with educational content, Investopedia also offers interactive tools such as its popular stock market simulator, which allows individuals to set up a brokerage account with imaginary money and trade publicly traded stocks and options on the NYSE, NASDAQ, and other stock exchanges.

From Investopedia About Us :

The core philosophy of Investopedia is that you are the best person to look after your personal finances because "nobody cares more about your money than you do"! Investing is not rocket science, anybody with the desire to learn can do so. Still, many people are intimidated by investing. Perhaps it is because of the jargon; maybe it is the fear of being wrong. This website strives to help you through the difficulties and to be your helping hand on the way to financial freedom.

SOW : Abdul Kalam's Homepage

I am sorry i am late for this week's site of the week. But as it is said everything happens for a reason, so as this.

I was really thinking what should be this week's SOW(site of the week). But i was not getting time either to post it on the blog. I normally post it on Tuesdays (12th AUGUST)

And then came 15 August; India's Independence day. There was a function arranged by SIES society the parent group of our college (SIESCOMS).

Also on this occasion SIES started SEAT an education trust to sponsor students' education. Since our ex president Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam strongly believes in education and the power of it on the minds of small childrens, our college really managed to call him to innugurate this trust.

He delivered a wonderful speech on Education Knowledge and Leadership. I will try and get the speech if possible.

It was the most memorable Independence Day of my life. So all my search ended, coincidently was thinking of dedicated SOW related to India/Independence, when Kalam sir announced his own website.

Hence presenting Site of the Week :-> http://www.abdulkalam.com

He even said that, if anybody has any kind of query s/he can mail it to apj@abdulkalam.com

And then goes his slogan: " Please repeat after me I CAN DO IT, WE CAN DO IT, INDIA CAN DO IT."
