>>>>>Hi all! -- I've got a project in the gestation stage that will need to get current stock prices and to look up stock symbols. Is there a web service out there that hosts this information? If not, is there some non-proprietary method for getting the information other than going to some place like E*Trade?

I see that Jordan has decided to stop contributing to the thread. Probably in his best interest. Hate to see anything bad come out of it, but I'm pretty sure he has been scraping the sites and using the data as a feed to his clients.

Yeah, just got tired one day of seeing all these inane thread titles. So the creative cynic decided to take action...
