Just set yourself up an account at Xpenser.com, and you’re in business.  Then you set up what are called “Reports.”  They are like expense categories, and allow you to group your expenses by type for the IRS.  It isn’t that typing in the entries is any easier than placing them into any other bookkeeping system.  It’s all the other ways in which you can get the expense entries in:

• Use your Twitter account, sending expenses in that will post for you with the proper amount and category.
• Text in expenses from your cell phone.
• Email in your entries from any computer or your Blackberry.
• Call them in using a Jott.com account, and they’ll convert to text and post.
• It will also track vehicle mileage, converting it to the amount for deduction.
• You can do the positive side of income as well.

Think about how great this is.  You stop by the office supply on your way to an appointment.  You pick up some computer paper and other items.  As you walk to the car, you call into your Jott account and tell it to Jott to Xpenser.  Give the details and the amount.  When you get home, just throw the receipt into a box, because your accounting is done!
