Hi, I think a thread specifically to post dividend increases as they get announced would by nice For example, GIS just increased 7.9%. Where to post, where to post.

I think this is a great idea.
Do you guys mean a single thread for all dividend announcements, or one thread for each company?
A single thread for all dividend announcements.
Folks can still discuss individual companies in threads dedicated to those companies

Date, Ticker, Increase amount, link to article about increase.
Here is a link to the Google Docs Spreadsheet I maintain for my portfolio.

Thanks
In a Numbers spreadsheet (Mac program), I also keep the annualized year over year increase for companies like OHI and KMI and others who tend to increase more than once a year, with a note about what the comparison months were. For example, with OHI I care more that the dividend in Feb, 2014 were 8.8% higher than the one in Feb, 2013 than with their most recent smaller increase.
Ok -- new thread for dividend announcements is up
here. Enjoy!
If we want to keep a collective spreadsheet, we'll have to get a bit more fancy, but that should be a good place to start collecting the announcements. Thanks for the good idea -- keep 'em coming!
