    Does anyone know of any true market data sources that are not delayed, free and open for commercial use?

    Of course.

    Is this just a Go Wrapper for the Yahoo Finance API?

    Related: I hacked Quote Stream (https://github.com/nodesocket/quote-stream) together a while ago. It pushes real-time quotes (not delayed) from Google to your browser via websockets using node.js.

    Heads up, it has not been touched in 3 years.

    I wrote something similar in Go about one year ago for my IRC bot.

    I never thought it'd be useful for anyone, but well, I guess it can :P

    I've done something similar using Haskell: https://github.com/agrafix/yahoo-finance-conduit I tried to do this using a streaming approach (conduits), but the data is delayed and there is no real streaming api.

    Unrelated, but is Google Finance never going to get updated?

    What sites do you all use to check up on your stocks, read news etc?
