Sad Guys on Trading Floors: Full of pictures of sad & funny pictures of Wall Street traders

I'm not really keeping up with this blog, but I thought I'd share these recent economic sights:

You'll have to visit the Sad Guys On Trading Floors website and read the captions to truly appreciate the pictures.

See guys, Adam Smith had it all wrong. It’s the visible hand of the market.

Economic Sounds and Sights is my on-line filing cabinet for resources and links related to our current economic crisis. (I am not an economist, and I do not belong to a political party.)In my quest to become a better-informed citizen, I know that I have much to learn. This blog is my way of sharing what I discover with others. I'd like to take this information to the next level, but I can't do this alone.

My vision? A collaborative multimedia, multi-modal interactive time-line might help us to understand the complex, interrelated factors and events more effectively. It would provide an opportunity for the inquisitive to view things from a broad perspective, and also explore things in rich detail. Ideally, the time-line would support multi-touch, multi-user interaction on larger displays and interactive whiteboards.

I welcome your comments and links.
