If you go to this page, you will see the quotes keep on changing....I wonder how they implement this? cool...:) http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=goog |
its a nice prodcut feature .. for those who like streaming and willing to pay for it. ..
but those how actaully need real time, industrial strenght apps are already hooked onto theNYSE/DOW etc with instance info.. why would they stream from yahoo ?

We blogged about this on ResourceShelf last week. Also new chart features. http://www.resourceshelf.com/2006/10/20/yahoo-finance-offers-new-stock-charts-beta-streaming-quotes-too/
Remember, the quotes are 15 min delayed. Yahoo does offer a fee-based real time quote service as noted above.
FreeRealTime.com offers real time quotes (with some limits) at no charge. http://quotes.freerealtime.com/dl/frt/account?&IM=register
Registration required. They also offer a fee-base streaming service. http://quotes.freerealtime.com/rt/frt/login
Also, real time quotes (for free) via their wireless services. http://quotes.freerealtime.com/dl/frt/T?SA=Wireless&IM=page&file=main/wireless.html

As is often the case, I forgot to add another source.
Marketwatch.com offers an wonderful real time tool (a virtual stream :-)) with headlines and links from MANY sources. http://www.marketwatch.com/news/newsfinder/default.asp?siteid=mktw&Property=word&value=&hidProp=&doctype=2005&selCount=20&Button=Go
