A bit late to the party, but here's mine. It's an online shop list management web-app. It's not open to the public. You'll need to send me your email address for me to set you up an account. http://shopsmart.lifeinlists.net PS: ShopSmart

What would the ideal split be to be called the best of friends? 50-50? I can make a case for that and an uneven split too. Doesn't the split also depend on some combination of effort and potential of each founder?
