Google finance

Not sure how many of you guys check stock prices, but if you haven't tried Google's attempt at http://finance.google.com, shame on you.

They do a really good job of putting a lot of information about the company on one page, including recent news that is time-stamped on the plot of the stock price. It has a flashy (no pun intended) flash gui for the plot that lets you change the time scale w/out reloading the page.

On a more sour note for Google, I read somewhere recently that Google Video holds only like 6% market share of the video search market. Youtube.com is #1 by a long shot with 43%! The funny thing is that Youtube makes it's money by using Google Adsense.
