The current 2.0 API allows you to do exactly that, it was designed for that.

There could also be a more lightweight solution to develop a web application, 
one that does not use a heavy web framework, which is a plugin to turn the 
desktop application into a mini-webserver. I don't think that that would be 
much work for someone who's familiar with web development and who takes the 
time to study e.g. the Windows Mobile client (all 200 lines of it, currently 
:-) ) as an example of an alternative client.

Such an approach would only work for people whose machine is turned on all the 
time and accessible from the internet, but it also has the advantage that you 
are not required to hand over the contents of your cards to a central server.

Any takers for this nice little project? 

(Afterwards, the code could easily turn into a server where many people could 
log in to, but to be honest, I'm not keen on managing such a central server 
myself. Someone else could do that, and even charge some money for that 
service, too.)

You're welcome!
