I’m really curious to see how the battle of the personal finance sites plays out in the next year or so.  Mint announced this morning that they’ve raised $4.7M in VC money.  Wesabe has some VC backing, but not nearly that much.  While I prefer the Wesabe model of the community helping each other find savings, it appears that VC’s seem to think that the paid advertising model Mint employs will ultimately win out.  I’ve heard Jason say it before though, their members are the most important thing to them, and not necessarily making the most money.  And with Quicken Online , it’ll be an interesting year…
