So what's going on with Spenderbot?
Well… I’ve been working on it. It’s coming along nicely.
After playing with / feild-testing the app, I came to the conclusion that there were too many buttons and the whole interface needed to be scaled back. I’m trying to avoid a Twittelator-like setup, sacrificing usability for a longer feature list.

SpenderBot Progress
