Splitterbug (YC S11) shutting down

We're looking at it. I'll probably go for mobile web first - 1 developer and a backlog of essential work that needs to be done. But I hear the call for Android, its definitely on the urgent list.

(edit to respond to edit)

What do you mean "just does splits"? It doesn't (at the moment) do a good job of explaining that the IOUs balance each other out: if I buy you lunch, then you buy me lunch, we're probably pretty close to balanced out.

I'm working with a great designer at the moment to try and fix some of the programmer-isms in the UI.

Actually, that's a UI issue ;) In the web or mobile app, just click the "delete" icon next to "you" when adding a bill.

And yes, we've got a way clearer and sexier UI in the pipeline.

Like, if I just wanted to say "Joe" owes me $20 for a lawnmower. There isn't a split, it's just an IOU. I think I could put at the top that I 'paid' $20 for the lawnmower (it's my mower! lol) and at the bottom that Joe owes that same $20. And that's basically an IOU.

But it hurts my head to work that logic out, for some reason.
