Being on Squawk Box is a thrill because they take a little more time to let you answer questions. Other than Joe Kernen who seems to be interested in anything but the web, I got to explain a little more about how we think about Stocktwits and vertical communities. Thanks CNBC for having me.

Howard, Great Job on Squawk Box this morning. “Imitation Is The Best Form Of Flattery”
thanks scott. appreciated and yes of course. war over flattery…who would have thunk it :)
Great interview Howard, and I liked these quotes:
“Everybody gets a microphone on Twitter, but the real specialists are going to take their own community.”
“Building a business on top of a platform is not a business.”
Very true that Twitter hasn’t spawned other significant businesses unlike Facebook who has.
Well done Howard. Good to see you on tape and congrats on the Twitter unwind. You deserve all the rewards for your temerity and for having a strong stomach to deal with the turmoil. Missed you this summer at the beach, but it was a glorious time with my family. Now it’s back to school, back to work here in the valley. Best wishes my friend and get yourself on the tube more.
