I have been using this iGoogle gadget from a long time. Google AppEngine is really good, and using Python is amazing feeling. Thanks for the post explaining your experience with that.

Many thanks for this service. I needed to fill in blanks in my memory and in a book-in-progress. Searched and searched, grew frustrated, and then…voila. Precisely the thing, and extremely helpful.

The ECB’s rates are updated daily, those I get from the Fed (LKR, TWD and VEF) only get updated every Tuesday with rates from the previous week.
Other rates: sure, if you can suggest a good data source I’ll add it!

Thank you very much I am planning to use this.
Great post. How often do you update the rates? How about the rest of currencies???
