The site http://www.good.com takes you to a Motorola PDA site.

The site http://www.bad.com takes you to a parked domain that says, "Welcome to Bad.com, Your source for virtually anything!"

Does this mean that being good has meager rewards, but being bad will get you anything? I don't know about you, but I'm seeing a cosmic message in this.

woww, I think it does. Except.... they have a heading for Michael Jackson there so I'm gonna stick with

http://big.com

BECAUSE BIGGER IS BETTER

lol.

A quote when refering to financial is sort of like when you go to buy a product at the store. Only they change from minute to minute. It's based upon percieved value.

And yes, I think this is neat because it is very much like looking for buried treasure. Just be careful as you can get into stuff you shouldn't....

My eyes! My eyes!

Wow, your school's server is pretty picky to filter on a word like "bad" Can you get to any site which has the word "bad" in its name? Try http://www.badapple.com.

Don't worry, it's just an 'Under Construction' site. So it's school-safe or work-safe (at least at the moment). I checked.

What Skorian said.

Also, that particular site quotes stock prices, among other things. It's the price a stockbroker--technically called a marketmaker or specialist, depending on the stock exchange--will pay you to buy stock that you own; or will sell you stock for. Each "quote" is actually two prices rolled into one, called the bid/ask price. Because a stockbroker wants to make money on every transaction, she'll quote a slightly lower price (the "bid") to buy shares from you and a slightly higher price (the "ask") to sell you shares of the same company. She pockets the difference as profit.

As Skorian said, the prices change from minute to minute. For high-volume stocks of big names like IBM, Microsoft, etc., the prices can change second to second in a fast moving market.
