As an alternative, I'm using a dedicated KeePass container to keep some files (scanned contracts and medical records). It's not super browseable, but for a secure storage of a few files, it's fine.
One specific case I wanted to address is a continuous backup of all my projects, pictures, and documents. I also wanted to browse the archive and the revision history.
This is somewhat different problem than one that can be solved by KeePass, TrueCrypt/CipherShed, or Crashplan.
Is this a problem that other people have - that is the question.
I understand you, java-man, but happily there are a lot of people that also understand. Check out git-annex[1], it is the best solution I've found until now for managing all my notes, uncomplete written things, pictures, audio recordings, chat logs, everything.
Thanks for referring git-annex. I like their "what git-annex is not" section. All I wanted is to have a secure backup/archiving solution with a GUI and thumbnails for large and raw picture files.
Looks good. What is your business model?
No idea. I just like bulding software tools. If enough people like this tool, it might grow into a more useful product.
I am considering adding either a cloud storage option, or some kind of private cloud (like Aerofs). The current version is just a prototype, no redundancy.
