Your Life as an Investment Analyst

A survey to understand the research and analysis process used by investment analysts.  I'm interested to know what tools you use and what tools would be helpful.  I'm also interested to know where you hang out online.
For the purposes of this survey RESEARCH refers to background reading or interviewing.  ANALYSIS refers to quantitative "number crunching" as well as qualitative analysis.
