I love CoinDesk, great site.
The benefit of the CoinDesk ticker is that the price can be updated without refreshing the page, but the downside is it requires using Javascript, which many CMSs (like WordPress) do not support. Also, CoinDesk includes only 3 active exchanges (not counting Gox as they have stopped reporting, not sure why CoinDesk still lists them), and we currently track the 7 largest exchanges trading in US Dollars.
Thanks for the suggestion about including the graph, I'll look into adding a couple image versions that include the small graphs, I think a
Sparkline would do nicely...
