What type of information are you looking for?

The three most obvious are:

Marketwatch (http://www.marketwatch.com)
Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com)
CNBC (http://www.cnbc.com)


There is also:
The Street.com (http://www.thestreet.com)
New York Times' Financial section (registration required) (http://www.nytimes.com)

There are also the markets themselves:
New York Stock Exchange (http://www.nyse.com)
NYMEX (http://www.nymex.com/index.aspx)
To learn about options (http://www.888options.com/)
Chicago Board of Trade/Chicago Mercantile Exchange (http://www.cbot.com/)
NASDAQ (http://www.nasdaq.com/)

You can reach the Wall Street Journal and Barrons from the Marketwatch site. Most of their content isn't free, however.

I should have been more specific in the OP. I have a job interview next week with a major online trading company, and part of the job would involve monitoring what is said about the company in prominent blogs related to finance, the markets, etc.
