A couple weeks ago I had an idea for a new service, but I'm not sure it's something others would find useful or if it would be accepted as an authority.

Basically, what I'm thinking is a service where people could do things like store notes, pictures, recordings, etc. and each item would be stored in such a way so that it could not be later altered (was thinking MySQL archive tables).

For example, the idea came to mind when my wife moved out a few weeks ago. Every time we have a conversation I feel like I need to document it, e.g. "Just spoke with X and stated that abc" and have that stored on a server of a non-biased company somewhere so that if the situation gets to the point of legal counsel being brought in I could put together a sort of log or journal of what's been said and when.

If this was something that could be useful, I could build out mobile apps that could take recordings and submit those or even automatically forward text messages from selected individuals. I would, of course, want something like triple redundancy on the databases to ensure nothing is lost.

But, like I said earlier, I'm not sure such a service would be helpful to others or if lawyers/courts would even consider the information worthwhile or admissible.

What say ye, all wise HN community? :)

I threw together a small site for people to submit funny/odd/interesting stories about their married life.

I could use some stories and some suggestions on improving the site.

Thanks

With all the privacy concerns, bugs, etc. that have plagued Facebook lately, I'm thinking it's time to move on to a different social network site. Was wondering what the HN community thought would be the next big site in this area. Is there a Facebook killer out there?
