On the Hunt for online helpers

I trying to find a few online helper resources. It'd be nice to find an all inclusive portfolio tracker. Sure, there's lot available. But none that I really like. Marketwatch is pretty good. The eTrade one has a nice analyzer that will break your portfolio down into investment type. But the search continues...

I'd like to keep a food budget. Keep track of my general eating habits. See how my calorie intake compares to exertion. Not all I assume allow tracking of activities. I've tried the iGoogle counter, but it doesn't even have an entry for bananas. I eat several a week. So that's no good. Nice thought that there are dozens of these freebies all over the net.

Automotive maintenance tracker. I keep a little notebook of the maintenance I do on our two cars. It's handy to make sure I get oil changes done, and so I can see what other works has been done. It's be nice to track this online. Then I don't have to wonder if my notebook ever gets lost.

We'll see what I find.

Well, I can help you with free websites for tracking your diet and exercise: sparkpeople.com, peertrainer.com

Good sites for finding calorie expenditure for activity: prevention.com, self.com

Good food-calorie site: calorieking.com (recommended by my Registered Dietitian).

Lots of magazine sites like Men's Health, Women's Health, Self, etc. have free diet tracking programs and forums.

Good luck!
