We’re in Newsweek’s April 28, 2008 “Tip Sheet” Section (page 60). We were also featured on this morning’s 5am Channel 9 News in the Washington DC area in a daily segment called “Links you can’t live without.”

This is all great. Here’s why it’s worth it (a comment posted on MakeUseOf.com about using FindABetterBank):

There are a number of reasons I’d like to say THANK YOU to makeuseof.com…after finding the site I spent about three weeks off and on, several hours each time, looking at the entire archive. I now have 9 folders of bookmarks of amazing stuff and the number is growing!

But this posting in particular is timed perfectly. Last month I was fired from a job of 17 years and was forced to move to a new town out of necessity. Luckily I have great friends in the real world as well as great cyber-friends. So the other day I walk into a Bank of XXXXXX to see about starting savings and checking accounts and they wanted $18.95 per month in monthly fees and I’d have to pay for checks. You know the typical banking scam! And then I got your e-mail that included FIND A BETTER BANK. And I did! Free checking, free checks, free bill pay, no additional ATM fee, free on-line banking, and on-line sign up for both accounts available with both accounts available at physical banking locations. Total cost per month $4, the same as the credit union I used to belong to!

Thanks again for all the great stuff you guys find and send our way!
