The Motley Fool's CAPS investing service is another great way for investors to work together to beat the market. Among other features, CAPS lets users blog about their picks, investing strategy, market view, favorite rugby team, or whatever floats their boat.

With room for only seven posts here, I can't possibly cover all of the great stuff in the CAPS blogosphere, so when you're done reading these, I highly recommend that you head over to CAPS and check out some more.
