billQ named Best of the Web by Online Banking Report
In the latest from Online Banking Report, "Personal Finance Features for Online Banking," we've awarded an OBR Best of the Web 2006 to a new Web-based bill management service. It's the third winner of the year,* and 53rd since the first recipient in 1997 (here's the list).
And the winner is, drum roll please, billQ <mybillq.com> a new Web 2.0-inspired bill manager from Seen Creative Group <weareseencreative.com>, a relatively new website-design firm based in Rochester, NY. The company was chosen for raising the bar in three areas:
- User-interface design (click on screenshot below for closeup; see more screenshots by clicking the continuation link at the bottom of this article)
- "Add this bill" browser-toolbar button
- Publishing bills through RSS and iCalendar feeds
Read the entire review, along with a look at a dozen other online personal finance applications, in this month's Online Banking Report (#131/132).
