JiffyBill
It always gives me the same warm feeling of drinking a glass of Hennessy on a rainy afternoon when, instead of just saying it would be good to have so and so, one of my friends actually does something about it.
Dan started JiffyBill as a pet project, to help us distribute the charges for our decadent lunches, where inevitably we end up too satiated with food and wine to have the presence of mind to split in situ, so somebody ends up picking up the tab and has then to bill the rest.
After a few of these, however, the trail of I-owe-you-but-you-owed-me-from-before can get convoluted, so he created JiffyBill (back then it was called LunchBill) to help us get things straight (cuentas claras, chocolate espeso we say around here). While I liked the name LunchBill a lot more – you could just tell somebody to lunchbill you – we started using it to send each other bills for anything from movie tickets to loans to shopping to … er … (ahem!) adult entertainment (ahem!), so it was renamed.
We’ve been testing it for a while internally, and the baby seems to be ready now to go out into the world. Take it for a spin, give it a beating, and let us know how you like it.
