GBP - NZB Currency Tracker
So I was bored at work today. I have gone right off the boil TBH and so made a GBP - NZD tracker.
I wanted, at a glance to see what the exchange rate was today and what it had been previously. It indicates by number and colour if the live rate is higher or lower than so you get to see a pattern (if any). Also gave me a good excuse to have a play around the awesome Google Docs.
Anyway here is the link. It doesn't do much in real time as there is a 20min update delay on the live price.

I reckon I will keep this my little project and update it as and when.

Re: GBP - NZB Currency Tracker
I use HIFx when I want to see how much money I am losing. I don't need much else. It tells me very simply how much my GBPs are devaluing on a daily basis. My memory is an excellent 'tracker system' to really rub the salt into the wound of how much more money I would have today had I had the sense (and not been sooooooooooooooo greedy) and changed the whole lot at 2.74 rather than just 15 % of it. Shit happens. Twat that I am.
