Oh wait, they don't. Slashdot stories about how Google is overvalued, Microsoft being a monopoly, Yahoo competing for anyone's time. Yeah, no, I don't think stocks show the whole story at all.
There really isn't any other way this could happen. I'm tired of being angry about all of this, because in reality it's completely logical.
Corporations are 50 years behind the times, and will continue to be forced to play catchup for the indefinite future. The government will legislate based on who they hear, and money speaks louder than words. Meanwhile people like me sit in thier rooms thinking about what could have been.
This has been discussed at length before, but the determination of the/. crowd was that though Scholar and things like Highwire profess to "do the same thing", they don't.
Highwire allows you to search for articles in catagories, published on certain dates, regarding certain topics. It's a classic database search engine, where the database contains simple information about articles. Scholar is a FULL TEXT search engine.
If you want to find all the articles that relate to Penguin migration patterns, use Highwire.
If you want to find a good example of where someone uses the XYZ method to support thier paper and you don't care about the subject, use Scholar.
They are both tools, and should only be viewed as such.
In Howard Zinn's book "Declarations of Independence," he cites a speech by a student at the Harvard Law School in the early 1960's given to a large group of parents and alumni. The student was speaking about current events, and said,
"The streets of our country are in turmoil. The universities are filled with students rebelling and rioting. Communists are seeking to destroy our country. Russia is threatening us with her might. And the republic is in danger. Yes! Danger from within and without. We need law and order! Without law and order our nation cannot survive."
The crowd applauded the words of the young speaker, and when the crowd hushed, he continued.
"These words were spoken in 1932 by Adolf Hitler."
I yahooed for something the other day, but people only stared.
To me, the stocks really do show it all.
Google: +2.53%
Microsoft: +3.32%
Yahoo: +1.62%
