HyperMoney

This article is a stub requiring substantial initial content from Woozle. Although you may be able to help expand it, it is more likely that Woozle will have to finish setting up the initial content before it will make sense to anyone else. Woozle: Projects: HyperMoney

HyperMoney is my attempt to write a money-management program (as in Quicken or Microsoft Money) that is actually usable and has no Stupid Features. It will be Open Source, as soon as I have source worth publishing (as of 2005-08-06, it's all written in Microsoft Access 97). The next step may be to convert it to web-based application, as HTML could possibly overcome many of the interface design issues I'm encountering.

Project Goals

The two major contenders in this niche -- Quicken and Microsoft Money -- seem to approach the problem more or less the same way, which means that in areas where either of them fall short, the other one does too.
