Python - Stock Quote Module

I just wrote a tiny Python module for programmatically retrieving stock quotes from Google Finance:

The module:

import urllib
import re

def get_quote(symbol):
    base_url = 'http://finance.google.com/finance?q='
    content = urllib.urlopen(base_url + symbol).read()
    m = re.search('class="pr".*?>(.*?)<', content)
    if m:
        quote = m.group(1)
    else:
        quote = 'no quote available for: ' + symbol
    return quote

Sample usage:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import stockquote

print stockquote.get_quote('goog')

Output:

>> 529.56
