Why is it that we bash technology companies like its a sport and when it comes to other services, oh I dont know like… Banking we give these companies an easier time. Listen I’m part of the problem as well, I love to make fun of Microsoft whenever I can. But seriously, there are tech blogs and there are political blogs but what about calling evil where evil lives. BANKS. Oh sure we flirt with bitching about our cable provider and big bad MaBells and our ISP’s (which is usually one of the formers err latters…you know what I mean)

We entrust our financial lives to these insitutions. There is a illness of service fee addiction that is running out of control in Canadian Banking (and I would guess Amarican banks as well) have a look at your bank statement and make sure that you complain when you see what a schmo your bank thinks you are. And how much money they charge for you to lend them your money. I’ll be writting about this from time to time. I wish we could 2.0 the whole banking system and make it less evil ING is trying. BMO tried and killed it because its customers (myself included) were far too happy (that experiment was called MBanx and I miss it dearly)

So let me ask you this…does anyone actually like their Banks? Who? Why? How?
