Xignite announces new web services for '06

Xignite, a company I've long admired for their vision in producing web services (and who in my opinion have the hands-down coolest UI for a ASP.NET web services test page) announced a new suite of web services it's got planned for 2006. As per the company's e-mail newsletter, they offer at the moment very diversified financial stock info and news data:

While we keep adding new services, we also enhance those you use today based on your requests and feedback. Some of the most notable enhancements include:

• XigniteQuotes : customizable intra-day delayed charts; access to intra-day and historical tick-by-tick data.
• XigniteRates: addition of a plethora of new interest rates to what is now one of the most comprehensive source of interest rate information; customizable Historical rate charts and yield curves; moving averages and more.
• XigniteCurrencies : customizable historical currency charts (sample); list of all cross-rates for a currency.
• XigniteNews: addition of Agence France Press, one of the leading worlwide news agencies, as a unique content provider.
• XigniteEdgar: ability to access SEC filings in PDF format.

...and the hits just keep on coming, as the 2006 suite is has not only web service, but e-mail alerts. Very cool.
