Hey everyone,

I've created a nice simple price ticker for Bitcoin that sits in the OSX menu bar.

It gets its data from Mt.Gox and allows for its automatic update interval to be set.
If you want to manually update its data, just click it. The data will be refreshed whenever the menu is opened.
You can also select which piece of data you want to be displayed in your menu bar.

Also, as a student I'd greatly appreciate tips if you find BTCPrice useful Smiley : 1Price4EGW8R59auccATvEwCFAhXYBML6V
