Tech Savvy Monkeys

How do monkeys and prospective see social media slowly seeping into their day to day work. With recent Insider trading bust using social media to pump & dump(I am not really familiar with case properly.Maybe someone in here can share more light on it), how does the street look upon social media in general.

Say how monkeys in here regularly tweet(minimum 5 tweets per day) or is tweeter blocked by tech guys... Do the quant tech savvy guys do it? Any users of social photo sharing like instagram here? I presume the street being a bit conservative does look down upon someone sharing pics all over(It could also be looked other way as personal branding for the gutsy ones looking for an exi op). I can understanding sharing pics while in dingy strip joint or after work drinking hole isn´t the best way....but overall how many in here regularly use it? Anyone tried the new one, Color?

How do prospective monkeys see this? Will they conform to a street still not willing to open up?

What about txts? How many txt regularly here? Are there private pools(anon) by streeters sharing jokes, street lingo, tips etc.

Cheers all.

Color I too have my skepticism about Color but you gotta give credit where it is due. Bill Nyugen sold two firms at a top notch premium price. I would say he is right on the top when it comes to selling himself...
