Google Finance is quite useful

Google, who’s always adding something, recently added an interesting service that is similar to Yahoo Finance, but takes a slightly different take on things. Google integrated Google Finance right in with their results, so typing in a stock symbol in the search button will return the page from Google Finance at top. For example, if you were looking for the New York Times stock price, you can simply type in NYT in the Google search button and click Search.

Click on the highligted symbol in the first match and you’ll be taked to a profile page on Google Finance. Once inside, you’ll see a profile of the company. You’ll see a number of unique features like which blogs have posted about the subject. Also, run your mouse over some of the options and you’ll see popups with extended information. The bios of companies include executive pictures and compensation, as well as much more. Definitely check out the new Google Finance features, I think you’ll be impressed with the service.
