Mint.com is a free, online, personal budget and financial planning website. I’ve been using it ever since it won the award for best company at TechCrunch40 last year. I’ve found the website to be fairly useful and highly accessible. It’s a great way to track all your income and costs (from credit cards, saving accounts, checking accounts, investments, etc.) and just consolidate your financial information into a single website. The site easily allows you to see where you’re spending your money, as well as potential ways to save money. More details below the jump.

Evernote is a new website/tool that I have been testing in Beta for over a month. Just the other day, however, they moved into public beta which means anyone can now request an account and test it out! Keep in mind that it is a beta so they’re constantly improving it but I would say it is definitely already reached the point where it is useful and usable. I’ll explain what it is and how it works below the jump.
Yelp is a quickly growing website with reviews of restaurants, clubs, bars, stores, etc… with all reviews being user-submitted. Self-described as “the fun and easy way to find, review and talk about what’s great - and not so great - in year area,” Yelp is reaching the critical mass of users needed to be a truly phenomenal website.
The site is especially great for people living in a larger city, but it is also rapidly expanding to include more and more places in smaller towns across the country. Additionally, the website is largely driven by a younger user base making it especially applicable.
I would recommend giving this website a shot next time you’re trying to find a good restaurant to go to in your area. Even looking up stores/shops for an area you’ve lived in for years can turn up some new and tantalizing finds.
