Mcafee has a very similar thing called Visto, but Visto has email, contact
and scheduling capabilities and 15 MB of space. They even say that your
information is "safe":
"Your personal life is safe with us. Many advanced security
techniques are employed to ensure that your personal information is kept
confidential. These include encryption of the files stored in your account,
password access control, login authentication, "secure session" transmission
encryption. Your information is stored in closely supervised, secure
computer facilities. " --

The signup page can be found at http://visto.mcafee.com.
Although these services are free, I believe that the phrase "Trust no one"
applies in these cases.

you know, this is either a very convenient dead drop
or it has that characteristic that makes "agencies"
put up anonymous re-mailers -- both are vehicles
likely to concentrate interesting material...

[8] Aladdin Systems FreeDrive
Could you use 20 MB of extra disk space? We've recently partnered
with FreeDrive to create the Aladdin Systems FreeDrive, which is
a free, password-protected 20 MB Internet hard drive that you can
use to store, retrieve, distribute, and back up your data (any
file type). Aladdin Systems FreeDrive is similar to a virtual
briefcase- it helps you end the juggling act between hard drives,
floppies, CD-ROMs, and external drives. It's perfect for iMac
users, or any user who wants more disk space.
Using your personal Aladdin Systems FreeDrive, you can now travel
anywhere, from across the room to across the world, and gain
access to your important data. No matter where you are, all you
need is Internet access and you're ready to go!
Plus, if you use StuffIt to compress your files before putting
them into your Aladdin Systems FreeDrive, you'll probably stretch
your 20 MB into 40MB or more!!
To get your own 20 MB of free storage, go to:
