My hope with sites like these, as they become more popular, will force one of two changes: a) banks start to bring this kind of functionality into their own infrastructure b) they become more open with _my_ data (securely ofcourse) Let's just pray it's going to be option B.

And how long the queues are. And whether the people in the queues are of the irritating variety who have no idea how to use a bank machine. Well, I can dream.

A few minor hurdles: 1) RSS == must be SSL encrypted, 2) SMS will cost you money (depending upon your cel plan) 3) Dashboard widget... Would a callable SSL web service be ok? I'll pass on your blog and see if they find anything interesting. Some nice ideas.

I believe they offer some of these services (using your own bank's web site), and they're more likely than any bank to listen to feature requests. Patrick, check out www.mint.com.
