The ticker is kinda neat, but not useful...so I guess it'd fall into "gimmick" category. Echoing the love of your site! New visitor here, introduced via Donklephant last week.

The stock data that I want, I get through myYahoo and other sources, and I bet that most everyone else is the same. If they're not already getting it elsewhere, more customized than what you can provide at the top of your site, they'll be better off switching to a different service before long anyway. I think your time might be better spent showing people how to set up their own, customized RSS feed or other system for tracking stocks that they are concerned about. I like your site, though!
