Everybody backup (at least I hope for you that you do). We do it on DVD, on external hard drives and we wish everthing goes well for a eternity. But did you ever wonder if your house went into fire and you loose mostly everything, specially all your souvenirs: photos, documents, etc.
This is why online backup services are so appealing.
I specially like the new feature of SpiderOak, this new online backup service, because it makes backup something you don’t need to think about.
Automated Invisible Backup. SpiderOak automatically recognizes any new and/or edited document, photo, song, or movie and backs it up in real time without you ever having to think, wonder or worry. This automated system works quietly in the background – never slowing down applications or Internet connections.
They offer 2 GB free and 20 GB for 10$ a month.
Another to consider if you go over the free space of Spideroak is Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service). They charge $0.15 for each GB of storage and $0.10 for each GB of data transfert. It’s probably the cheapest and probably the most reliable service out there.
