xwiki = very cool and powerful- has db backend, attachments, versioning, scripting langauge, and security, RSS feeds, online diffs, one click rollbacks.

webnotes = for those who cannot part with the postit paradigm - free form postits in a browser - kinda cool.

tiddlywiki = for those who want a personal wiki that runs off your USB drive - really way of editing and storing data. When you leave a company you take your wiki knowledge with you. :)

I'd love to see an integration between some kind of OneNote (or WebNote [bright color warning - shield your eyes]) replacement instead of a calendar.

Free-form notes, easily sortable and searchable would be a killer app, not another dumb calendar. Maybe a calendar tied in with THAT would make it the ultimate?

Is there any thought (or already some kind of .xpi) of an app like that?

or...

I agree, public online applications shouldn't be used for sensitive data. That's why webnote is open sourced under the BSD license. If you want to make private notes or have something that you're locally accountable for, you can run it on your own server and use SSL or whatever.

Additionally, that's one of the reasons I provide an RSS feed. You can easily save a local backup of your notes.

It seems all the files stored there are publicly accessable. For instance, people keep messing with my note.

I've been playing around with the idea of a sticky-notes/post-it style app in a web browser using CSS and javascript (so it will work in IE 6+ and mozilla/firefox).

I call it webnote and anyone can play around with it. I mainly wanted something I could access anywhere but is a bit nicer than a plain text TODO file in my home directory (which is what I used to do). This is also easy to share with other people (partially because I haven't implemented any security yet).

Actually, I use FreeBSD for both desktop and server. I admit that I originally made this decision based on my familiarity with FreeBSD and I was a bit apprehensive, but I've found it to be just as good for everything I do. My original concern was hardware support (getting XFree86 4.x to work properly and firewire support), but it hasn't been a problem. Over the past couple weeks, I've successfully installed one of the 4.6 pre-releases on my laptop, including the firewire cd-rom drive and internal wireless card. Tangentially, I must say that networking with FreeBSD is incredibly easy, I was amazed at how little effort it took to get the wireless card up and running.

I think FreeBSD works fine on the desktop, but then again, I don't really play games. I use all the same software as linux folks such as galeon, gaim, enlightenment, kde, etc
