Many of you may have heard about the recent acquisition of mint.com by Intuit, the makers of Quicken. I really like using mint.com to monitor my financial status. I have yet to really embrace the budgeting aspect of it though. For budgeting, I use a little more antiquated method... spreadsheets! I originally created my own custom spreadsheet, first in excel, then in google docs. Having it available anywhere and being able to quickly update it without launching spreadsheet software is a plus. I can also easily share my budget with my fiancee. Recently, I discovered the wonderful library of templates available on google docs when I needed to create an invoice for some freelance work I did. Out of curiosity, I also checked out the personal finance templates available. If you are looking for an easy way to create a budget online, I highly recommend you look into the spreadsheet function of google docs and also check out what templates are available in their template library.
