title: Syncing localStorage
body: <p>I'm looking for a solution that allows a browser's localStorage to be less local, so that people can access their data on multiple devices. The traditional way is to run a database on a server and have people log in; but I'm trying to avoid doing that. I'd like the server side to be lightweight - perhaps even completely static if possible - and to not have the job of safely storing passwords, worrying about data protection etc.</p>
  
  <p>Many browsers have a login of some sort -- Google Account, Firefox Account etc -- that ties a user's browsers together. So the ideal solution would be to store data in localStorage, but use that account to sync across devices. There are interfaces such as <code>chrome.storage</code> that seem to be available to packaged apps, but not to ordinary web pages.</p>
  
  <p>Is something like this possible with present technologies?</p>
