If you can get access I recommend reading the Barrons article on seeking alpha.
It was an eye opener to see in print what we all know.
I know - no link - it links out my subscription

Isn't Seeking Alpha the Bleacher Report of the financial world?

I'd say that's zero hedge.

To offer an alternative perspective, I find this interesting as well.
Study shows Seeking Alpha has better stock predicting abilities than Wall Street.

Barron's digital subscription from today:
Headline "Big Bank Stock Rally Looks a Wobbly on Charts"
Sub article on front page of iPad digital edition from today "Buy Bank of America"

So basically, Barron's wrote a hit piece on an admittedly inferior competitor, but still a competitor nonetheless.
I like SeekingAlpha but I'll admit I only read the conference call transcripts on earnings reports. I think it's safe to assume that all sources of analysis are suspect and that the retail investors are best to do their own reasearch, but that's just me.
