Personal pages [more ideas]

A web service where I can upload my personal pages, similarly to a blog. Difference is that these pages are encrypted. I have to enter a password to see them. I can enter to-do lists, personal links, address book, all my passwords, PIN numbers, etc. The point is to have these data online, so that I can access them when needed. This way I don't have to carry pieces of paper around, which is both a burden and a security risk.

Of course, you can't trust any provider with your personal data. But you don't need to with this system. You enter/edit your data in a textbox, and it is encrypted with strong encryption within the browser, before leaving your computer. The whole thing is transparent, open source javascript encryption. The server will store only the encrypted text, when you view it you decrypt it in your browser.

After usage clear browser cache and that's it. Additional mechanisms for integrity check, backup, etc. Of course the whole system is essentially the same as encrypting your own files and uploading via public ftp, but the key is to make it both usable and secure.
