<div>Ok, this catches us up to Monday, and we&#8217;re almost back on financial-literacy track. </div>
<p>
<div>For those of you who are brave, empowered and socially-fearless, you might like to try the &#8220;twitter of budgets&#8221; (As I&#8217;m so-dubbing it). <a href="http://www.geezeo.com/">Geezeo.com </a>is a frightfully-social way of playing with your budget. I do think this could make budgeting fun for even the most carefree of souls. </div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>Geezeo calls itself &#8220;Geezeo, the coolest, most fun way to look at your money without becoming one of those cheap people even you don&#8217;t want to hang out with.&#8221; (I take exception at that last part&#8230;.) </div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>I played with the site a bit today. They have a fantastic twitter-like feature called &#8220;confession booth&#8221; which you can either use with your own ID or anonymously to confess your financial indescretions and get back on track. </div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>I&#8217;ll admit, I participated. I posted &#8220;Discovering that every time I get in the car seems like a good time for Starbucks. I&#8217;m thinking of filling my cupholders with concrete.&#8221; Ok, not too difficult. I wondered what others were saying and took a look at the feed&#8230; and I could read those all day! If you&#8217;re really brave, you can update Twitter from the &#8220;confession booth&#8221; if you&#8217;ve linked the two in your profile. </div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>They have an aggregating feature which automatically downloads everything, excellent security credentials, and an &#8220;ask an expert&#8221; feature which I&#8217;m going to explore some more. Their blog also has some great posts including one today on four ways to save money on perscriptions. That&#8217;s a major expense in my household, so I&#8217;ll be studying up. </div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>If you haven&#8217;t found our other budgeting solutions to your liking, give Geezeo.com a try. It looks like a lot of fun!</div>
<p>
<div></div>
<p>
<div>Just my $.02.</div>
