If you are a reader of Accounting Web, you may have spotted a nice little article they wrote about Float earlier this week. It was a nice surprise, and a good reminder that a lot has happened since we last blogged.

As Accounting Web mentioned, we are now closer than ever to being live. We currently have more than 170 users on our closed beta, and are wrapping up development of a major new release which will launch us into open beta.

Improvements you can expect to see soon include:

• A quicker and easier first time setup experience.
• Simpler importing of your recent transactions, bills and invoices from FreeAgent.
• An overall simpler interface.
• Sexier, interactive, animated graphs.

Here’s a quick preview of what’s on the way. And finally, if you would like to be added to our beta waiting list, and stay updated on our progress, sign up for our mailing list at http://floatapp.com
