Spendview lets you track your spending in a beautiful way
The key to saving money is knowing what you're spending it on. If you can keep track of every cent, you can discover exactly where your money is going and act accordingly.
Spendview is an online application that enables users to track and visualize balances and expense data in one place. This is done through an engine that tags and categorizes spending in order to make your finances somewhat exciting. Spendview also uses tag clouds and a dynamic chart instead of old fashioned pie charts and bar graphs. This way you can see all of your data at a quick glance instead of mulling over numerous columns and categories.
Users start out by registering for a free account and adding bank, credit card information and tagging transactions with keywords. How secure is the data you enter? Spendview says that its 'secure', and they do use 128 bit SSL Security. However, you should always be cautious when entering private financial data online.
Other comparable online financial tracking software options include Mint, Quicken, Freshbooks and Gastus.

The home page has a logo for 256 bits of encryption, but when you signup it is only 128 bits? Sounds shady already...

I signed up yesterday!!!!wow and they send me an invite. Really like their dashboard; tells me everything about my financial health right there on one screen. The adding accounts was little confusing but i managed to add my chase credit card and citi credit cards. I really like the fact that they gave me three choices on how i would like to update my account. You can automatically update, manual update and semi automatic update your account. I have tried expensr OldCat. You might wanna check these guys out.

I still prefer a trustworthy software app called Quicken for doing my finances. And it's not like you need to upgrade every year, the 2005 version adds up my banks accounts just as well as the latest and greatest.

Don't forget about Yodlee too... since a bunch of banks actually give Yodlee as a free add on, I think you can trust them more than some fly-by-night RoR .com.
