Mint.com - Budget without thinking →
The main graphic on their front page may look a little amateur, but once you’re inside, it’s definitely not. Mint.com compiles your bank accounts and credit cards into one list of transactions categorized as food, shopping, electronics, entertainment, school, etc., and gives you a breakdown of what’s going where.

“I’m singin’ all these songs while I sleep on your couch I’m coughin’ up a lung, but I’m coverin’ my mouth And I paint you on the walls; yellow, red, green and brown I miss you all the time, but I’m blockin’ it out.” — Kevin Devine, “The Longer That I’m Out Here”
