With the JSON API Google Spreadsheets is offering, you can get (kinda) up-to-date stock quote information.

This is really old.

A group of us from here were playing around with this in a shared spreadsheet about 6 months ago. I'm sure that was instigated by a post or forum thread posted here but a Google search brings up nothing...

I read something about these features on Webware's site.

Yeah, I know it's not news... but it's a cool feature of Google D&S the Google developers (linked from the via) say many people don't know about, and I agree...

Unfortunatly you can't export them into Excel files. When they created the feature I whipped up a quick spreadsheet which got all the information for a specific ticker.

I was the tech lead at Google for the Q&A onebox (and all the related data) when we first launched it. I've posted about the GoogleLookup functionality here: jonathanbetz.blogspot.com/2007 ...
