Not as cheap as dismissive comments on forums.

  How's this dismissive? I've blogged and posted about this topic for a while [1]. I've also spent the last 2 years full time on a project that relates to data ownership and portability [2][3]. For those of us who write software specifically designed to solve this problem it's unfortunate when others make the same claims based simply on promises.

    Your suggestions are absolutely valid, and I appreciate them Jaisen. Your efforts with the Open Photo Project are noble, and I respect them a ton. Give us some time -- Posthaven was a vague idea just a few months ago. We are under the gun to ship software at the moment.

      Appreciate the response. I do hope you get around to adding some of these features. The Internet needs services like that desperately. But until those features are released I have to remain a cynic :). Ping me on Twitter (@jmathai) if you wanted to grab coffee. I never pass an opportunity to chat with someone about the preservation of digital archives.
