Each topic can then have additional sub-topics that you can addmore detailed information to. For instance, under the shopping topic, you can add information such as things to buy and sell, gifts received, coupons that you have which you can use later, and so on.
On individual shopping lists you can add what items you have purchased, the purchase amount, your budget for that shopping, so as to be able to keep a better track of how you are doing agaist your budget.

Your personal social networking accounts like Facebook and Twitter can also be synced with Life Topix.
