Ciao Jeremy & Danielo > Part of the issue is that part of the reaction to NoteSelf has actually been reaction to seeing browser local storage used for the first time. To me, that’s really an irrelevant distraction from what’s cool about NoteSelf.
I don't think its entirely irrelevant. One of the things I like about it is that it saves locally in a uniform way--in the browsers I have tested so far. As I commented previously having ONE method, not browser plugin-in dependent, for local save, is, I think, very useful to see working. I do think there are issues with local storage. Which can likely be overcome. I'm less concerned about privacy than portability.
