    Top programmers still in Eastern Europe..

    In addition to raw talent and creativity, a motivational and opportunistic environment is important to the development process and new technology. Right now those things are perhaps best here in the US, which isn't to say that will not change or that it may not be doing so already. -jmho

    EOD Data Source

    I got this in an email on Friday...the API looks good and seems you only need to pay exchange fees. I don't know them and have no affiliation, just passing it along. http://www.opentick.com/index.php?app=content&event=api&menu=products
