I'm trying to find out if there is an online service that allows the
"storage" of simple text files that can be easily edited.

I've used online storage services in the past (example: Xdrive), but
I'm looking for something else. With services like those, you need to
download any files you've stored, make changes, and then re-upload
them. I'm looking for something simpler.

I have certain lists (what CD's I've burned, what software I'm looking
for, etc.) and I want these lists to be easily accessible from home or
work. I want to be able to edit these lists online easily and save the
changes while online. It should also be secure.

Does such a thing exist?

Thanks.

Although I have not used this service myself, I believe what you are
looking for in called "Online File Folder".  This service is available
at http://domainspaces.com and http://godaddy.com  I think the rates
are reasonable at $9.95/yr for 1000mb of space.  You may want to check
out either one of these sites for more information.

Hi!

Would online notepads be the kind of solution you're looking for?

Yahoo Notepad

Net Notebook

Thanks!

Thanks Jack, I'll check them out.

Thanks easterangel, I'll check those out too.

Easterangel,
Have you used either of these services?  I took a look at the two you
mentioned and I don't get it. What is the catch?  Banner ads,
bombarbed by email solicitations, nothing is ever completely free (my
opinion).
Jack

To me, bannerads are meaningless.  So I don't consider them to be a
cost.  I think it's just the conditioning I've gone through to ignore
them.

I've used Yahoo Notepad.  The downside is that there is a 5000 char limit.

Just a thought...maybe you could use a free email service and just
save a draft of an email which would be your notepad.  Reopen, edit,
resave...presto!

Thanks James,

I didn't notice the 5000 character limit when I was looking over the
Yahoo Notes site. Now I understand how it could be free because of the
limited space available.

Hi webklicks-ga!

Yes I have tried Yahoo Notepad before since they are integrated with
Yahoo Mail. However; it just so happens that the sites I referenced
were free. Being free was not a concern when I posted them since it
was not a requirement in the original question.

Anyway this was posted in the comments section so gooch77-ga was not
charged for an official answer.

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for the responses. For now I'm going to go with Yahoo
Notepad. While it's true that there's a 5000 character limit, that's
per note, so an unusually long list could be split. The good part is
that you can indeed edit the notes and resave while online. Most of my
lists aren't that long.

You can also create folders to organize your notes.

As an added bonus, there's a free sync utility you can download to
sync your notes, calendar, and addresses with Outlook. While I'm not a
big fan of Outlook, we do use it at work, so now I can sync everything
between the two.

Thanks again,
-Eric G.
