I know, I know "Oh my, not another eve market browser" 
Bemmo.net
Anyway, here's the thing:
We have 16 regions, 1000+ items (all ships, all rigs and subsystems and most of the important stuff in the Manufacture&Research section). Price history and boy that was a PITA to get and update :) Nice shiny graphs. Ok, graphs in flash might look shinier but I was told I have to bow before JS :P Several updates every day for every item.
And soon to come (couple of weeks at most) accounts where you can have a list of items and export the data in css or xml form. For now you can create an account on the forums (wich will also be used later for said feature) but pretty please with sugar on top: DO NOT USE your eve online login or password.
After everything is set to smooth, we will be focusing on WoW for a while (yeah, I know, wow, boooo) but January/February will bring more regions, one more item category and we plan to implement some useful tools in the accounts like a ME calculator, POS maintenance calculator etc.
Looking forward to your feedback.

Well it's fast!! Well done, but how do you update the data? It seems like a massive undertaking to have 16 regions with 1000+ items..

Looks good, Id also be interested in how you keep the data up to date.
Are there any plans for:
1) Price data on faction/officer/deadspace items? (I know this wouldn't be available through any automatic updating of prices but perhaps some sort of manual system?)
2) Web API allowing 3rd party apps to access the data.
Nice work though.  --------------------------------------

Data is being kept up to date by a combination of many accounts, quite some computers, programs like Multiplicity, the use of cache and a handful of people that don't get bored easily  There are no plans in the near future or not so distant future for the prices of items that are sold on contracts. I would also love to be able to provide that but the amount of manpower required to be able to get even not so up to date data it's just not feasible atm. For the web api part: the short answer is no. The long answer is: we are going to implement soon the ability to export data as css or xml and after that we plan to have lots of applications in the account section to make use of the data. On the shortlist there are right now planed: 1.A feature where you select a blueprint and the ME on it and you get the value of the item based on the forge prices/overall prices. 2.A feature where you select an item like for example a Megathron and items like Zydrine and Megacite and you can see how the prices of former influenced the price of the finite product (or how it didn't in some cases ) (I would like to thank Grendell for this idea) 3.A POS maintenance fee calculator based on region/overall prices.
We hope to make that a long list of useful applications next year so suggestions are more than welcomed.

I don't suppose you guys could add the time remaining for an order? It's hard to tell how much active competition their is for an item (e.g. how much .01-isking is going on) without knowing the time remaining. It'd be even nicer to add a "Last Change" column, and make it the difference between the duration and the remaining time.

Hmm, that's a bit weird, I just went to the entire process to see if there's any problems because we have just updated the forums and it worked. And I don't see any accounts created today, can you PM me in game please with the name? Thank you.

I will consider that, however almost all orders are 90 days and we have the Issued column :) And we wanted to have as much information possible in as few columns possible for those with smaller screens :)
