Do your online logbooks have a place for the instructor signature? If not, then the important part of why you are carrying your logbook isn't there. If so, then I'd place a lot of emphasis on backing up the data on the electronic logbook 8 ways from Sunday. For instance, if you lose your E-log device while flying over some river, you need to have confidence that your data (even if backed up) can be retrieved even if the E-log folks go out of business. Your flying logs are good for life, so your ability to get that data back also needs to be good for life.

I was thinking about this the other day with the discussion about having to carry our log books as a sport pilot with us on the plane we are PIC of. In the age of the Internet, and everything going online, there are lots of electronic log books these days, which offers a great deal of features over the standard paper-based ones.
What if I wanted to go paperless and my log book is web-based? What then? I can't quite carry the Internet on-board... :D
(btw - this is a rhetorical question, but I liked the conundrum)
