What I've learned about making backups...

This is a cautionary tale, like so many you've heard before. In a land not far from here, with people just like me and you, data is being lost.... lots of data.

I was an accidental participant in the great data loss of 2006. It wasn't my data, but I helped lose it.

Please take it from me, back up your data early and often. For my part, I use Retrospect for the Macs in my house. My solution for Linux.... Amazon S3
