AJAX + Flash = Google Finance

Google recently launched a new flash and AJAX based RIA called the Google Finance. It's really a path breaking step in the RIA development sector. Just having a company like Google endorse RIA’s is a huge boost for the RIA movement.

The UI and functionality are pretty impressive. The Stock chart is linked to the headlines, so if you select a sudden drop in the share price, the headlines change to correspond to the dates of the drop. Really cool!!!
