Presuming that you always use firefox and can always install an add-on,
there is always chipmark[0].  That is both a web service and a firefox
add-on and a IE plugin.  And the whole thing is open source so if you
didn't trust them you could set up your own server and adjust the addons
and plugins to use your server.

I had already started on my project long before I found out about
chipmark.  However, there are a number of things I want to try that
chipmark doesn't bother with anyway, so it probably isn't a waste,
provided I ever get to those things.
