I came across this site and thought it was a pretty neat idea. I know it has nothing to do with safety tips but I wanted to share this site with you. It is a wonderful way to share your precious memories with friends and family.

The service is designed to replace those shoeboxes full of photos, shelves of video cassettes and drawers full of letters and journal items. The idea is to add these elements when you sign up for the service and as life unfolds.

For example, when you sign up the service asks you a series of questions such as what high school you attended, what you remember about splashing or swimming as a child, what was your first job, your first car and so on.

OurStory is focused on collaboration. If you add something to your story, everyone in your "designated circle" gets an e-mail with what you've written and the picture you've uploaded so it's an automatic engagement. Simply by replying to the e-mail, they automatically add their own comments or recollections to the story. For example, if someone were to send an e-mail about a shared vacation a number of years ago, everyone who was on the trip could add their comments.

If you're setting up an account and don't have a lot of appropriate photos, the service can automatically take you to Yahoo images to find something (hopefully) appropriate. For example, if you're writing about your graduation and don't have the pictures of you and your classmates, you can get a generic graduation picture as a placeholder until you're able to upload just the right pictures.

Privacy controls allow to define and separately control as many circles as you want. You can write for just yourself, for your immediate family or for a specific group. For example, if there is something you might want to share with your college buddies that could get you in trouble with your family or colleagues, you would designate the buddies as a separate circle. It gives you the flexibility to interact with the various parts of who you are. You can have separate circles for your parents, boss and co-worker but still write about the crazy things you did in college, without having to share it with people who might not quite appreciate your antics and indiscretions.

One thing I've noticed about documenting parts of my life is that there are things I tend to forget. In addition to the initial set of questions, OurStory has more questionnaires that prompt you to recall memories that might have slipped your mind. There is also a "decade pack," which is a database filled with detailed information for the 20th Century and the first six years of the current century, should you need some facts to pepper up your life. There is also a "Do You Remember When" section that asks you and your friends questions about what happened during certain periods of relatively recent history.

So why wait? Go beyond blogging and scapbooking. Sign up today for a free account and start sharing all those wonderful memories.
