Five suggestions for CNBC.com

Joshua Brown of Benzinga has five recommended moves for CNBC.com now that it has hired well-known  online business journalist John Carney.

Here are three of them:

1.  Post the track records of each stockpicker/forecaster as they appear on CNBC TV.  Even if it’s only a record of what they’ve said on the network before.

2.  Give Dennis Kneale a blog (KnealeThoughts?).  The wounds have healed from the Kneale vs Bloggers War last year.  Let’s give the man who has an opinion on everything a chance to flesh his thoughts out online.  Maybe we’re not so different, he and us.  Or maybe we are.  Either way, I guarantee there would be tons of incoming links.

3.  Add the StockTwits stream to at least each stock quote page if not the homepage itself.  I know I’m the from the home team on this one but the fact that StockTwits is the best real-time market commentary extant cannot be denied.  And the site’s visitors would love it.
