EVERY FAMILY HAS A STORY ...

The LifeLongDiary has been created to enable the permanent, secure and private recording of a ‘LIFE’ in words and pictures.

It is a unique, enchanting way to record an individual or a family’s history and ancestry and designed to build and enhance family bonds. 

It contains a diary or journal that begins on a birth date and runs for an entire life, with a storyline to tag and record significant events, past, present or future.

It is an album where places, dates, photos and videos may be added to illustrate these records.

LifeLongDiary also includes a four generation family tree, designed to accurately record the paternal and maternal history of all the family. This is especially important to ensure that future generations are able to trace their heritage. Don't make future generations curse you for not giving them all your history (including medical and genetic) that they need to understand their roots.

Anyone can register, knowing that all information entered is safe and secure, with state of the art encryption and authentication provided by the SSL Certificate, confirmed by the Lock in the address bar.  Independent testing by SSL Labs confirms A grade security.  (See more info in the FAQ's)

To get started, all you need to do is to click on ‘Register Now’ in the green bar below, register as an author and start creating your Family Tree and Storyline. 

There is no cost for the first month to allow you to assess this long-term project.  If you choose to proceed, we will invoice you for the first annual payment of $24USD, which includes the first Gigabyte of storage.  Additional space is available at the then rates to cover the management, maintenance and secure storage of your diary in the 'cloud'. 

Our intent is to enable your descendants to access your diary for many generations, if you choose to make it available to them.

Your LifeLongDiary is your property and can be included in your will for future generations.

PLEASE NOTE:

As the 'Author' you are assured that the site is designed to be in a safe, secure and encrypted environment, with access by others only by your specific invitation. This is a 'read only' access with the ability to add a comment. This access by others can be withdrawn at any time.

You have total control of the information and who it is shared with, to ensure privacy and eliminate the possibility of compromise or theft of identity. The sale, assigning or passing on of information will never be contemplated. The site will also be free of advertising.

WORKING TOGETHER:

The decision to take on a LifeLongDiary for yourself or someone else is a challenging task and not to be taken lightly. For us the challenge is to preserve and protect your memories for a lifetime and beyond, and to build a mutually beneficial, long term relationship.  A storage limit of data may apply at some point in the future.  It is impossible to predict what financial support the project will require in the coming 10, 50 or 500 years as the number of participants and the amount of data requiring secure storage grows.

Please remember that it is your story and your information and you have complete ownership of the story. You could publish the material, leave it to someone in your will, or give it to someone else.

If you choose not to continue with your LifeLongDiary at any point, you can download all of your input, or delete your material.  We will be sorry to see you go and no doubt, so will your ‘subject’ or your descendants when they become aware of what could have been!  We would also regret that your story is locked inside you, forever!

FAMILIES FOREVER!!!

TIME BECOMES THE THIEF OF MEMORY (Stephen Hawking)

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, LifeLongDiary is also a storage album designed to hold photos, videos, and other recordings of events and milestones, achievements, relationships and goals that shape who you are.

THE STRONGEST MEMORY IS WEAKER THAN THE PALEST INK

LifeLongDiary is Family Media, combining moments from yesterday, today and tomorrow - on a storyline for participation or sharing and captured for current and future generations.
