This is a fantastic, very well designed website for personal finances. Although it is still in beta, its is a great resource.

From the website:

Mint is building a free, simple, and secure personal finance web-app. Designed to be effortless, Mint consolidates your financial life in one place. Easily see how much you have, how much you owe, and where your money goes. Advanced alerts notify you before you bounce a check or forget to pay a bill. Patent pending algorithms even show you personalized ways to save and make more money. If your finances could use organization without effort, Mint is for you.

It also has sections for Money 101, Hacks to save money and general financial news from around the world. I especially like the article on what to do when you lose your wallet.

    Mint’s site is really great - I just wish they’d put out the program already!

    Well, if it’s free it may be worth a try. I’m actually in the market for a new personal finance software package. Do you think that this will be robust enough for a small business owner? Anyway, thanks for alerting us to this resource.

    There are many websites out there for the small business. I do believe that this will be more focused towards personal finance.

    You might want to try http://www.freshbooks.com. Its a free web-based quickbooks clone and it seems to have done well.
