Last night we expanded on an idea we had recently put on our blog on StockTwits TV on the topic of financial blogging.  We talked about how financial blogging can be of value to traders and investors.  While it comes with its own costs (and risks), blogging can help traders build their brands, archive their thoughts in real-time and help sharpen their ideas and processes.  You can view the video in its entirety below:
