I have Quicken on my PC but I have been on the look out for a web based free tool to track my expenses. I came across this timely post from lifehacker from which I discovered buxfer and clearcheckbook.
Both sites meet my expectations and are great tools for creating and tracking budgets & spending, though so far I prefer clearcheckbook because it is quite similar to quicken, while buxfer is more appropriate for group spending and shared resource tracking.
beauty of 2.0: Both sites added Kenya shillings within 12 hours of my emailing them this request and I am now able to see where most of my weekly money goes.
Another list of budgeting and financial resources.

hi, I downloaded MoneyManager by 8mobile.org(java)onto my phone, which makes simple records of daily transactions. I find it much handier coz I almost always have my phone and so will more likely record the transaction when I do it rather than at the end of the day, and it has a provision to email these transactions for the month to your email either in CSV format or Excel.
JabaBoeku: I used to use quicken, but some weeks I never turn on my home PC (also negates simple Excel) . How does your app work?
How about JMoney? Also supports Kenya Shillings.
@JB: thx, will try to use the MoneyManager.
thanks for the good links for tracking expenses. i'm now back to student life and definitely need to keep track of expenses. will make sure to check them out...
