Live! Local! Late-Breaking!
The SDO/AIA team are making current solar images available. I'm not sure how often they're updated, but the stuff below the cut is supposed to link to the most recent image. (There are other wavelengths, but these are my favorites. 171 for pretty loops and flares, 335 for erupting prominences, continuum for sunspots. And 1700, which is UV continuum from the upper photosphere, because it's a novelty to me.)
Click through for the 1024×1024 pixel version; if you want the full 16-Mpx experience, substitute f for l in the links.

No, really. I don't think it has these images yet, but they should be along soon.
