It's not just backing up those memories, you are talking about closing the door to making them. It shouldn't happen. There is always a solution. Please ask this from Ohlife founders. We can save it together. I simply couldn't find any thing as simple and functional as that.

Give people a chance to save OhLife. Set an amount for giving the server another year. Put this amount on your website or a crowd funding site like Ycombinator invite all of your users to donate to raise the fund just like what Wikipedia do every year. Don't simply shut it down without giving the users a chance for keeping the door open.

email to them hello[at]ohlife.com

I wish it was as simple as Ohlife but it isn't.

I knew this will happen. About 400 notes over past 3 years. I used to write directly online by just typing "oh" in the firefox's addressbar, which was the keyboard shortcut for https://ohlife.com/past, hit write button and start writing. That simple! Now every thing's about to disappear. This little sancuary where I used to hang with my memory. Things don't last but they should. at least till we are here.

Neither 280daily or Penzu can get even close to the clean, fast, beautiful and simple interface of Ohlife. Specially It's large readable clean fonts. Right now offline Secretpad seems like a viable alternative. or just the our old beloved notepad.
