TickerMenu 1.0 offers stock tracking in Menu Bar
The Highly Technical Doohickey Company has launched TickerMenu 1.0, a Mac OS X Menu Bar application that tracks stocks. Users can choose which stocks to track by entering a stock's symbol, and the display is color-coded to instantly show a gain (green) or decline (red) in stock value. Clicking on TickerMenu in the Menu Bar launches a drop-down window, with extended information on a stock's performance and options for switching to other stocks. The window can also launch one of six financial websites for further research.
TickerMenu works with Mac OS X 10.4 or later and costs $9.

Nice app, but.......
To make this even more useful, how about an app for the iPod Touch/iPhone? Didn't I read about a large number of these device being sold? How about it, HTD Co?

iPhone/iTouch ticker ...
try visiting http://padmanijain.googlepages.com/ticker.htmlit works inside igoogle, so you can bring up Safari on an iPhone/iTouch (or on any Mac or PC).Running inside a browser isn't as nice as a stripe across the main display...But it's free.
