Wall Street Analyst Data on the Web: VGChartz vs. NPD
Wall Street Analyst Data on the Web: VGChartz vs. NPD
O'Reilly Radar - June 19, 2008
Submitted by Sanderson1 (1446) at 3:29PM PST on June 18, 2008
So if you're an investor interested in this sector or an analyst -- the first question you should ask yourself "is the data from VGChartz good?" My answer is, after looking at and using VGChartz data for the last two years, it's quality. But please in the Age of Web 2.0 form your own opinion.
Additional reasons follow.

For him to be able to use VGC data for the last "two years", which means since June 2006, he must be one of the early adopter (when it is still in .org URL), since the .com is only established around July or August 2006. I know this is I am one of the first user to register on VGC. (id #4).
Is O'Reilly a famous person ? I didn't live in US, so no idea about O'Reilly (other that he is probably an Irish person, from his name).[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

Are you saying that David Riley is "skirting about the issue" ?
I wonder who Viper is ? It seems he is very active ath e-mpire forum, but I don't want to register at e-mpire just to find more info about him (and I have to register/log-in at e-mpire before I can view his data).
