how about exporting/saving/backing up to a cloud storage provider like skydrive/dropbox. That should remove the need to maintain accounts. You can use the javascript dropbox sdk to replicate/backup the local storage file onto the cloud. When a user accesses it via some other computer, simple ask him to login to his dropbox account and you can sync the local storage once the access is available. Just my two cents

hey wiresurfer!

Thanks for your input, it's much appreciated. I am very interested in getting this part of tyto working. Do you think personally that dropbox is the best option for this feature? or do you think maybe offering skydrive, google drive and dropbox would be better? I also need to think about how this would be tackled from a UI perspective too to be honest so any opinion you may have on that would be much appreciated too.

Thanks again for the input! feedback has been great!
