<to be fleshed out later... Basic idea - all the information in my life - financial, technical, personal - that would otherwise be on my computer or on paper should be out on the net. Tradeoffs - security risks (server intrusions on the net, physical intrusions in real life), integrity risks (net info presumably backed up, risk of businesses running the server going out of business - vs. risk of my own computer crashing, home burning down, etc.), convenience (info on net searchable, can be organized more flexibly - real-world info is literally at fingertips, not vulnerable to lost connections)...>
