any comments?
Thanks! Smart work.

In general in a NSA dominated world using ssl (https) is a better bet. But if you care not that someone might snoop, then by all means http it is.

If you run your own server, a self signed certificate (needed for a httpd to run ssl) is just fine, as it will spawn warnings but who cares and you then get the high-grade encryption. But nothing is REALLY secure nowadays unless you really know wots wot, so YMMV.
