It’s especially useful in that scenario since I bill InfoWorld for regular features, like my column and this blog. FreshBooks will let me set these invoices up automatically, so I don’t have to remember (or not) to do it every month. You can even define recurring line items.

Bsales details more about FreshBooks in his review, but the key points include a dashboard so you get a quick view of all your billing (see screenshot below), a Time Tracking feature (see the screenshot below), and the ability to customize the default invoice (see screenshot) with your own logo and similar formatting.

Oh yeah, and it’s free for fewer than three clients. Check it out.
