Really the title should be "Adobe Flash Player is required for finance.google.com interactive charts until they port it to html5"

If Google cared about Google Finance, they would have done that five years ago (or more). It’s clearly in maintenance mode, with the bare minimum spent on it to keep the lights on but no active development.
Which is potentially why I've heard for years that Yahoo Finance is really good, in fact probably better considering the amount of attention Yahoo Finance gets. Yahoo is still my go to choice. I only use Google when I am looking up stuff from Google's domain and it shows up as an instant answer.
Yahoo finance was "better" before Google existed. Google was one of the first to negotiate and implement realtime quotes.

But Yahoo had comparison tools, better option chains, investment challenges, etc.

I got into investing in middle school because of their investment challenge and virtual portfolios.

(finance.google.com) is already next to the title
