This is the 3rd post in a series about free personal finance websites. You can find the first post here and the second post here.
There is a good chance that you have heard of Quicken before reading this post. Quicken Software started in 1984 and has been a household name when it comes to personal finance software. However, this name has been built on a line of desktop software, not something that you can use from any computer with an internet connection. Quicken Online has changed this by allowing you to keep track of your finances over the internet. So here it is, my review of Quicken Online. Again, these are my opinions, people, so you need to make a decision for yourself! (Continued)

This post is the second in a series of posts that will highlight various free online personal finance tools (link to 1st post). As you can tell from the title, this particular post will give a rundown of Geezeo. I’m going to talk about the positives as well as the negatives from my perspective. These are purely my opinions and you are more than welcome to disagree. So let’s get started… (Continued)

When it comes to keeping up with where you spend your money, there are a whole lot of options out there. Some of the old school among us still use the register in our checkbooks. That’s right, kids, some people still carry checkbooks (and I remember what a register is). All kidding aside, there has never been an easier time to be financially responsible than in the 21st century. The main reason for this is a long list of personal finance websites that make it super easy to keep up with exactly where your money is going. Maybe the hardest part these days is just deciding which website to use! (Continued)

Have you ever been checking your email and thought to yourself, “Man, I really wish I could play Snake while I did this?” Yeah, me neither. That said, I think it is awesome that some Gmail engineer(s) were able to take some time to work on something fun like this. Anyways, here is how you can set it up with your account. (Continued)
I’m not going to make it a regular occurrence to bash Auburn on this site. I have many friends with ties to Auburn and I’m not willing to disrespect them just to make jabs at the school and football team. That said, there are times when I will come across something that is simply too funny to not be shared. This is one of those times. (Continued)

So I was casually watching the Office on Hulu while tinkering with some other stuff and something caught my eye. I was almost 10 minutes into episode 1 of season 5 (entitled “Weight Loss”) when I recognized one of the other students in Pam’s art class.
After watching over and over again I’m fairly convinced that Angela Kinsey (AKA the accountant Angela Martin) has something under her shirt and is taking a seat in the front row of Pam’s art class. The blonde hair is what first caught my eye and the green hat seems to be pulled low to try to hide her identity. (Continued)

I must confess that I did not take as active a role today as I had hoped. Katie and I had intentions of taking part in the round table discussions this afternoon, but alas, life got in the way. That said, I do feel like the two presentations that we did attend were very valuable. CBS 42 even came out today and got some footage of the event (see end of post). (Continued)

Today was the first day of WordCamp Birmingham, and what a day it was. It all started with a great presentation by a WordPress Developer Emeritus, named Dougal Campbell. It was very interesting to see how Wordpress has progressed from release to release. Also, it is always fun to speculate on what might be included in future releases (I can haz threaded commentz, plz). (Continued)
