Someone needs to buy Mint.com

Hey 2nd Story Software, don't you think now would be a perfect time to buy Mint.com? I think it would send a signal that you are the exact opposite of Intuit. I think it would also diversify your product portfolio. Plus Mint did an awesomely amazing job by both having a product that users want to use, and having a built in revenue model from the start. Excuse me twitter, but what's the point of your business when you're not making money? I know that works okay in the valley, but that doesn't work so hot here on the east coast.

Similar acquisitions happened recently with Tree.com picking up JustThrive.com. Let me tell you, out of all the online budgeting programs out there mint works the best and is the most relavent. Can it be improved? Sure. Does it have all the features I find useful? Not really. But it is heads and asses above stuff like wasabe, justthrive, & rudder.

So 2nd Story Software, Go buy it.

And now for the Weekend update, with your host: Tina Fay

I only wish I had the ingenuity that Tina Fay has in her writing... I'm afraid I'm a desperate lot and most often any attempts at being humorous fall flatter than the breasts in the Itty Bitty Titty Committee. Fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how you look at it), this weekend was relatively tame. Lots of drinking -- but not that exciting. Didn't really get to meet a lot of new people. Though the highlight had to be the marriage proposal I got. Yes, that's right, a marriage proposal. While I'm waiting impatiently to get into the single stall in the ladies room -- I recieved the most amazingly wretched drunk pickup line weirdness. "Will you marry me." Me: "Excuse me are you talking to me?" Druken boy: "Yeah, will you marry me?" Me: "Um no, I don't even know you. I don't even live here." Drunken boy: "Me either." Me: "Um okay -- so I just want to pee." Drunken boy: "But will you ...

Nicest Weather EVER!

The ride to work this morning was amazing. It was some of the nicest weather that I've seen in a long time. Almost 60 deg F, sunny, just nice. I want more of this weather. Bought tickets today for BOSTON! I'm in major need of a mini-break and in major need of getting away from work for a few days. I'm so excited to go back! I miss it sooo much. It's hard living somewhere you don't like. It just makes me think of looking for another job so that I don't have to live here anymore. But I'm not even partially vested yet -- so I need to stay at least a full year to become at least partially vested. *Sigh* Work stucks today for so many reasons. I'm glad it's friday. And I'm really glad I get to go to Boston next weekend. Yeah for Boston!
