From Lifehacker:
More than 100 companies are strutting their stuff at the Demofall ‘08 and TechCrunch50 conferences out on the West coast this week. At events like this, which involve dozens of beta demonstrations of new products in development, a lot of the items blend together into a white noise of over-hype, but a handful of this week’s debuts are intriguing. Let’s take a look at 10 of the neatest up-and-coming offerings that aren’t yet available—and the tools already available to you that replicate some of their eyebrow-raising tweaks.

If you’re a reader of this site, you know I’m a sucker for betas (and if you’re not a reader, feel free to subscribe and become one). I spend a few hours a day searching for new sites, and if they have a beta tag, which most of them do, I’m hooked. These 19 sites are currently on my radar, and I’ll do my best to explain why. You’ll find a mix of open betas, private betas, and even an alpha or two mixed in for fun. By the way, if the title to this post caught your attention, I’ve accomplished my goal. I’m participating in a ProBlogger group writing project, and you should too. Here are the betas!

Buxfer is free online personal finance software for budgeting and expense management. I’ve been using it for about a week, and I’m very impressed. It auto-syncs with your banking info, and auto-categorizes most of the transactions. I’ve tried Mint, and a few others, and I think I’ll be sticking with Buxfer. Keep in mind, it does ask for your banking info, so if you’re not into giving out that type of info, this site’s not for you.

Are you effing kidding me? This site kicks so much ass, but sadly, will probably be gone soon. I have no idea how it’s made it this far, but Mygazines (clever) is a service I’d gladly pay for. They claim they are a free place to browse, share, archive and customize unlimited magazine articles uploaded by you, the Mygazines community. Okay, but what about having every magazine sitting on the news stand right this very second? Cosmo? Yep. Men’s Health? It’s there, as well as hundreds more. You better go there sooner rather than later, because like I said before, I don’t see this one being around too long (although, I hope it stays for good).
