the PearBudget Blog

Hi everyone!

A couple of quick general-interest notes, and then the request:

First, if you’ve been hoping for a general “year in review” page, we’ve got one for you to check out: PearBudget: Year In Review. We’re still hoping to get some feedback on how to improve that page, so let us know if you have any thoughts on it.

Second, for those of you with iPhones, we’ve added an icon (a “webclip”) that you can add to your iPhone home screen, so you can go directly to PearBudget, without having to type in anything. Hopefully that’ll speed up remote receipt entry for you. Again, if there are ways we can make that better, please tell us!

Third, we’re working on transitioning this blog over to Tumblr. You can get an early look at the new PearBudget blog. Note: the address might be changing around a little bit, and we’ll be moving the RSS feed over automatically, so you won’t need to worry about that. There’s just a little more cleanup we have to do before we make the transition official, but I figured I’d let you know about it.

Fifth, just another reminder that we’re on Twitter, and we often post early announcements about features and server downtime and whatnot there. We’ll be posting more on the new blog, but even with that, you might find it useful to follow PearBudget on Twitter. We actually use Twitter for some customer support, too. So if you follow us on Twitter, and you have a quick question, you can send us a note, and we’ll get back to you ASAP.

Finally, the appeal: If you’re a PearBudget user (especially, families) in the Atlanta area, and you’re interested in being featured in an Atlanta-area parenting magazine, please let us know! You can e-mail me (charlie) at pearbudget dot com to let me know if you’re interested.

Thanks for your time! We love you all!
