Red Ink is a personal finance social network, built as a Free and Open Source Software project. Red Ink apps leverage the collective financial information of their participants to help them make more informed and better financial decisions. * Would you like to track your energy consumption compared to your friends? * Measure if you are over paying or spending compared to others * See how and where money flows through your community? * Measure economic trends across local or national groups? * Or just get deals and recommendations based your actual consumption? These are just a few of the ideas posited by the Red Ink platform as we try to re-invent personal finance. Red Ink is a research project of the Center for Future Civic Media at the MIT Media Lab.
