ClearCheckbook was mentioned in the August edition of Money Magazine in a segment about cutting your spending with free tools. We were mentioned along with two other software alternatives.
The segment reads:
"
Pros: Info is stored online so you can access it anywhere. You can add expenses as they happen via cell phone or IM. The program also reminds you of recurring expenses.
Con: Budget resets every month, so if you've underspent on groceries, say, the balance doesn't roll over."
Here are images of the
cover and
story.

I started using clearcheckbook after reading the article on Money Magazine. I think it is a good and simple alternative to control your expenses but with accounts in different countries I still miss an option for multiple currencies. Do you have plan to include this feature on next release?
Thanks

Second, I'd like to take this moment to agree with Mr. Martins up above. I live on the border between two countries and having multiple currencies would be a godsend. Thanks, and best wishes!
However, Money has a point. Resetting is an issue. Many of us are looking for a site that 'rolls over' amounts and offers all the other wonderful features clearcheckbook has.
Is this something you are looking at? If not, is it something you would consider any time in the near future??
Thanks again for such a wonderful site!!!
PS: I don't see answers to the two questions above. Are the answers posted on this blog (would be helpful to all) or are they sent via email to the members doing the inquiries???
We are working on building this functionality into the next version of the site. Rolling over amounts should work seamlessly in the next version. This shoudl be due in mid october.
