Do you think Twitter is something else? What would you say to a social network for Forex traders? As odd as this may sound, there is such a thing. And according to BloggingStocks, the Forex user social network, known as Currensee, received $8 million in funding.

So, what exactly is Currensee all about? The idea is relatively straightforward. Meet others virtually, exchange ideas. But what makes Currensee unique is that you can also view and monitor other member’s Forex trading activities. It does not take a genius to see how this can prove to be of great value beyond the mere social networking aspect of things.
