Functionality to restore backups back to the service
It would be nice if there is an option to restore the file back to the service e.g. I ould like to restore a google doc back into my account then I can just click restore in my backup , and it goes back into the google docs account.. Similarly there can also be an option to restore emails. This can probably also be used to shift emails from one account to another by specifying a different account to restore the emails to.

This varies depending on service. We can’t pre-date tweets, for instance, so we can never really restore them. But we could push some data back to some services. We have some of this on our 6 month roadmap.

Evernote Support
I use the Evernote (evernote.com) service quite a bit and would like to have a backup of those notes and photos. A brief review of Evernote Developer's API page speaks about exporting data so it might straightforward.

Based on the changes to Evernote’s API, we do plan to work on backup Evernote in the upcoming months.

Text search within backup files (Gmail, Google Docs, and so on...)
When the backup archive accumulates hundreds of emails or google docs, for example, it becomes almost impossible to find a specific one, unless a text searching engine is available!

We are in talks with providers such as Dropbox about this capability.

We have not yet had any requests for this service but we do have plans to open up our API at some point which will allow services such as this to write into us so this can be possible.

Support pushing backups to a location of my choosing
The problem here is now I'm relying on your amazon service not to fail instead of twitter. instead of downloading my backups manually, I should be able to specify an ftp or some other storage location of my own to push my backups to.

We are looking into supporting Tumblr but not in the immediate future.

Support Posterous
Posterous is like Tumblr, but allows you to post by email, amongst other things. It is becoming very popular on Twitter, so it makes sense to support it.

Better User Interface
The services section is somewhat confusing in the sense that after I create/set up a new service and then click on the "manage" link again, I don't see any kind of green check mark or anything that indicates that it is set up, active, etc. It just shows my email address or Twitter username follows by the blank password field (which isn't even labeled as a password field). It seems very incomplete and ambiguous. A slicker, more intuitive interface and status system would be great.

Backup Wordpress files
I think the Wordpress backup would be much better if it included all theme files, plugins and uploads as well as the database. I'm currently having to back these up separately.

Support Wordpress.com Blogs
I believe they already have an export in place so this seems possible and very useful!

Support Deleting Backed Up Files
Some files I don't necessarily want in my archive forever. Please allow us to selectively delete files that have been backed up.

Make archives to download for Flickr backups
It is pretty unwieldy to download 3000 photos from the Flickr backup archive. Please zip them together in a zip archive for download. Need not be ready all the time.

If our integration with Evernote and Springpad go through well, we will continue on with rememberthemilk.com.

Don't show services that haven't been set up in the dropdown in the archive section.
The dropdown menu to browse the available services in the archive area should only show services that the user has set up. If I don't have a hotmail account, why should it be in the list taking up space, when I'm browsing my archives?
