Notes from the Presentation: Wesabe was the first to market with money management tools and community finance. Money is hard to talk about and with the product they have the ability to share insights with spending decisions. New homepage that brings to life some of the new things with Wesabe. They have been innovating with Twitter – you can Twitter information into Wesabe – gave an example of a taxi ride as an expense. They don’t believe that product managers should tell you how to manage your money. The Wesabe product allows you create your own tags – and your sub level tags. Exciting part they highlighted was taking the API to the people in a UX experience, not needing coding and you can compare to other Wesabeans. The product did not appear to be complete as noted by the presenter. Going to build a graph gallery through the user community and share them with every individual.
Interesting Industry Note: Founder and former CEO of Corillian Corporation (acquired by CheckFree) Ted Spooner is now the CEO of WeSabe.
