Let's Go "Wiko"

Arranging trips is left too much to chance. I've a list of places I want to go to, and a bunch of friends who like travelling.

Budget Gadget

InDinero, smallbiz accounting site, adds budget feature - Feb. 3, 2011
Great potential from the snippets I've read. Budget spreadsheets I've inherited definitely symptomatic of the Excel curse of data hoarding, at the expense of function, analysis and need. The more data vacuumed, the more tied up and committed your records.
