The Sun's Financial Diary is a blog of unknown parentage, but it's one of the few financial blogs I've found with good information.
Yesterday's post, T-Bill Investment Rate: Is it APR or APY? And What Is Your Taxable Equivalent Yield? is a careful comparison of the rates offered by T-Bills and a high-yield online savings account.



FYI - Jonathan of mymoneyblog.com posted a nifty calculator for this function back in May:

The 4, 13, and 26 week T-bills are usually posted and equivalent APYs calculated in this Fatwallet thread every week:
