Yahoo! finance is one of the most famous and successfull finance news website. It has tons of informations, as you can easily check (YHOO on Yahoo! Finance, by example). Perhaps too famous already...

Google couldnt resist and and launched Google Finance, as announced by Forbes.

As usual, Google seems to "get it right". Just have a look on GOOG on Google Finance : you'll get the AJAX feeling : a responsive, dynamic application.

For example, point your mouse on the graphical datas : the mouse pointer will follow the curve, showing numerical datas. Good idea.

On the right, Google shows a list of events and news about the company. This is already an interesting feature. But Google goes farther : it shows the event on the chart, making it easier to see the event effect on the quote.

The Google Finance beta is a very good start. But in that field, Google  is far behind Yahoo! Finance : much more data is available to build a detailed financial analysis. Nevertheless, Google is a very fast-moving player, so things could change in the foreseable future.
