Find Financial News And Articles With Tip’d, PF Buzz, And More

Originally, I was simply going to announce the official launch of Tip’d (a community for financial news, ideas, and tips), but then I got the idea to write about a few more sites that I found useful for finding financial news and articles.  So here they are, 8 sites to find financial news and articles.

1. PF Buzz

PF Buzz is a social bookmarking site is focused on all things financial. On the home page, you can find user submitted articles that have been voted up a few times to ensure that only the best stuff made it to the front page. However, the upcoming buzz section is also worth visiting.

In addition to the social bookmarking, the site also offers:

• Random Buzz — this allows you to surf among submitted articles quickly,
• Buzz Planet — this features financial articles from the partner blogs
• Personal Finance Forums — this allows you to discuss financial topics with other users

2. Tip’d

Tip’d is similar to PF Buzz but with broader topics and wider audience. In fact, it’s officially launching today — congratulation to Mu Saleem. Some key features include:

• Topple button
• Private messaging
• Users have 3 min’s to edit story after submission
• 2 new categories created (business and entrepreneurship)
• Tip It button now has its own server, which means it won’t slow down anything
• Published stories are straight HTML followed links, not redirects

3. Feed The Bull

Feed the Bull is another social bookmarking site but it’s much more focused on the Stock Market and investing matters. Additionally, the site features a Top Site feature where you can find related blogs and web sites. Lastly, the site also offers a tool section where you can find the toolbar and \stock ticker widget.

4. BizzLo

Bizzlo.com is another social bookmarking site for business and investing. It allows investors to submit stories and investment ideas, comment on public filings or form groups based on particular investment styles. Users have instant access to analysis on lesser known stocks, Contrarian investment styles, or international investment ideas.

5. PFBlogs.org

PFBlogs.org is the grand daddy of personal finance blog aggregators. Here you can find the latest articles from over 1,000 blogs.  In addition to the main aggregator, you can find articles by category and popularity:

• View all blogs (popular)
• Personal finance (popular)
• Real estate (popular)
• Investing (popular)

6. PopTop Ranks (Personal Finance)

PopTop Ranks (Personal Finance) is a unique top site that ranks financial blogs by the number of subscribers. In addition, you could see the latest blog post along with each entry.

PopTop Ranks also offers a drill down tool that shows you the subscriber historical data, Google PageRank, Alexa Rank, Technorati Rank, and Technorati Authority.

7. Alltop Personal Finance

Alltop Personal Finance is a magazine rack style portal that displays the last 5 headlines from top financial blogs and web sites.

Moreover, Alltop offers a cool Alltop widget that you can use on your site or blog. There is a widget for every topic. All you need to do is select the topic, configure the widget, copy a snippet of HTML code, and place the code your site or blog.

8. Streetread

Streetread is a financial news browser.  It automatically aggregates the latest headlines from over 20 of the leading finance sites on the web, as well as all of the stocks you choose to follow, and all within a single-page, easy to use, auto-loading interface.

In addition to the web sites above, I also want to mention two blogs: MSN Smart Spending and WSJ The Wallet. Both of these mainstream blogs do a terrific job of regularly linking to other great personal finance blogs and articles.
