We blogged about this on ResourceShelf last week. Also new chart features.

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.

Registration required. They also offer a fee-base streaming service.

Also, real time quotes (for free) via their wireless services.

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.
