Crap I had been looking for something like this. I just plunked down $$$ for MS Money and had gotten used to its interface.

update: mint was just acquired by intuit, details @:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/15/technology/internet/15mint.html?hpw

iirc, mint had taken ~30M funding and was expected on track for this to be their first profitable year.

(hopefully) good for their founders / team!

First, I have to start making some money again, then I can get this software to begin managing it. ha ha!
Looks good, Thanks Hal. :smile:

I tried mint but sorry didn't like it. On the other hand, Quicken online is free. Works well, I recommend it.

I assume with mint being bought by Intuit, they'll just morph it into Quicken Online.

Ive been using MINT for about 18 months now. I really like it.

interesting +/- comments... it would have been interesting to have participated in the acquisition team(s) on this deal. hopefully, transition will go well so everyone - especially customers - wins.

BUMP!

Mint joined forces with Quicken on-line (see my post above) and is the best of both worlds. It is now the sole accounting software I use and it's STILL FREE!

You called it! I have enjoyed Mint since the very beginning. Great stuff.

thanks I like it!!!

but how secure is it? not crazy about logging all my financial info in on place.

That is precisely why I don't use it. I do my finances on a computer that is not connected to the internet.
