For anyone who’s been trying to sign-up on Mint.com in the past 24 hours, we are currently experiencing heavy load & slow response times.

This may be due to winning TechCrunch40, being featured in PCWorld, Digg, and San Francisco Chronicle all on the same day. Apparently about 100,000 people really needed to get their finances organized immediately!

In the next 2-3 days things should be dramatically faster. Until then, it may take 20-30 minutes to link to your bank accounts (instead of the usual 30-90 seconds). Get a few of them up and running, put it in the background, and (later in the day) enjoy Mint’s approach to personal finance!

Organize your financial life.
