What would you be doing differently than http://www.btproof.com ?

As the others have pointed out, I'm not able to view the regular site. But I did look at the cache site. btproof.com, to me, seemed to be very techy. Meaning that you have to kinda know how to code some. And, it wasn't user friendly. I may be wrong, but thats the impression I got. What I plan on having is a site where you will be able to upload images, messages, and files with a single click. No need to "hash", no need to import/export addresses wallets, etc. Its going to be so user friendly. You would be able to see photos, messages, and files other have uploaded. You can do this because the bitcoin is public. The transactions are all public.

That would be amazing i say, i haven't heard this thing before but sure be ready to look out in future

It has already happened. There are pictures of Nelson Mandela. I'm talking jpeg images, not links. Quotes, files, programs, and somethings in there that I don't want to mention exists in the blockchain. Satoshi himself put a message in the first block ever mined.

Is there an easy way to view the files stored on the blockchain? If people can see what is hidden inside, there will be more interest in putting files there.

Thats a great question, PolarPoint. Is there an "easy" way to view the files at this time? For the average person, imo, no. I don't believe the average person has the skills to view images and files on the blockchain directly. Of course, I plan on making it super easy to view files, images, messages that are already on the blockchain.

@RF
While you bring up some interesting points, allow me to address them.

So you are out to destroy the block chain?

No. Destroying the blockchain is not my intention. Might this test the blockchain a little? Maybe. Maybe not. Did Satoshi dice and other bitcoin based application "destroy" the blockchain? No.

Absolutely the last thing that bitcoin needs is 7 billion ass clowns loading up the blockchain with pictures of their dog.

Imagine if 7 billion people trusted bitcoin? 7 billion people relied on the bitcoin blockchain? 7 billion people USING THE BLOCKCHAIN. With a transition to the mainstream, people must be able to use it, with ease. Search it with ease. View it with ease. As you can tell from this thread, some didn't know about the ability to store pictures, and files in the blockchain. If bitcoin wants to become more mainstream, people must understand it and be able to use it. I will make this seamless transition for many to use the blockchain without knowing one line of code. Of course, everything will be verifiable IF you know how to code and view the blockchain.

Oh but wait What if some sick fuck uploads kiddie porn onto the blockchain and then the sickos start using it as a distribution network for kiddie porn as a guaranteed way to ensure distribution with ZERO TRACEABILITY ,. now. every copy of the block chain held independently would be:

1. An excuse for WHY kiddie porn was on your computer. ( sorry officer , I was only using bitcoin)
2. An excuse for law enforcement to totally destroy the Crypto currency due to its association with the most vile of human beings.

Yep well you did not think of that did you?

Then the Bitcoin Programming team would be forced to counteract the stupidity, but wait how to remove the filth already in the confirmed blockchain..

Unfortunately, this stuff is already on the blockchain. And with or without this service, more is being put on the blockchain. And, of course, by the decentralization of bitcoin's nature, nobody owns bitcoin and everybody owns bitcoin. So, like guns, or technology, it can be used for good and/or for evil. Of course, I will do all I can to prevent evil, but I can only do so much. And once the service is available, I'd like your suggestions on how to prevent such activities. I want this service to be used for the good, not the evil.
