I wrote about Wesabe extensively this morning. In short, I like it, but their privacy policy is a bit disconcerting considering they're dealing with personal finance data.

I'll certainly continue to use Wesabe for several more months. I think it has great potential. But I can't see it replacing Quicken at this point. I don't think it's meant to, though.

My evaluation is that Wesabe is interesting but I'm not interested in using it. The potential benefits they expect to offer wasn't sufficient for me to upload my data to their system.
