Mom Hack of the Day
Please Backup Your Computer! Don't lose your precious family photos!
1. On a Hard Drive at home- Best reviewed external Hard Drives
- Mac Time Machine
- Caution: Time Machines in particular and other hard drives can fail. Make sure to backup online too
2. In the online "Cloud" in case of fire, flood, theft or hard drive failure- After doing your first, time-consuming, online backup, your computer will regularly, effortlessly backup in the background
- For around $5-10 per month, the peace of mind is well worth it!
- Our research has shown that no online system is perfect, but anything is better than nothing! Don't research yourself into paralysis. "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good!"
- The best reviewed online systems are Mozy or Dropbox. See LifeHackers review of top 5 online backup tools
- At the very least, regularly put your photos on Kodak, Shutterfly, Picasa, or Flickr to protect precious memories
