The BlogShares Blog

Here at Blogshares, we all know that a blog is dead if there have been no new posts in six months. We can't have that for our own blog, it just wouldn't be right.
So, given that we needed to post something here anyway, I think it's time to tell you about a new feature we are working on in the GIC Labs. For a long time, we've wanted to make the "public" market a bit more dynamic and less predictable. We've come up with a way to start that process by causing some semi-automated trading of blogs that look like they might be interesting. The only blogs affected are those solely owned by the public, and the trades will look a lot like normal player activity.
The financial effect of this functionality is somewhat limited, generating a couple of billion B$ in value through testing on a few dozen blogs. Once the kinks are all worked out, we hope that it will open up trading opportunities for shares players by exposing blogs that they might not run across in normal searches or other play.
