I’ve been thinking about this app for a while, and yesterday I decided to name it Zum (Vuzum, but also Sum).

It’s going to help people do one thing: a sum.

Why it matters? Well, it’s going to answer one simple question: “How much did the X cost you?”  or “How many times did you do Y?”.

You’ll be able to create different projects, and every time you spend something for that one project, you’ll add your expense to it. Or you’ll simply increment it.

The idea

The idea came when I was looking for an easier way for keeping track of how much I spend for building our home.

It would have been useful to Vuzum co-founder when he married, as I asked him how much he paid for everything, and he didn’t knew exactly either.

It would help people know how much they spent in a trip, or for any other project that takes more than one expense to have it completed.

Add to all this a nice statistics extension, and you’ve got yourself a pretty nifty app! :)

Progress

I didn’t do much except register the domain and the Twitter account. So ..the website is this, and the Twitter account is this. (nothing to see yet)

P.S. : It could also help a guy keep the track of.. you know what. (the number of beers he drinks in a weekend) :-)
