We spend countless hours working with our computer, creating value and storing it to this fragile spinning disc called a Hard Drive. What happens when thing go bad.
Hopefully, you'll have tried out the new, free, backup service called Mozy. You get 2+ GB of storage for your backups. Simply download the client, set up the schedule and drives (no networked drives allowed, local only) and then your data is safe.
I'm trying it out now..not that I've ever needed to restore from backup, but hey, you never know.
The 2+GB storage is interesting...it's an incentive to get you to spread the word (like I'm doing here). This referral plan gives you more backup space for everyone that you refer to the site. In my case, should you want to try it out (and help me out at the same time) use this code:

Interesting. We have launched a service based on the software by Remote Backup Systems, Inc. http://remote-backup.com
We will offer a much more comprehensive service than what these Ëœcheapos’ are offering, and will exclusively target the business sector. Our online backup software natively supports open and in-use Exchange and SQL databases, among other advanced functionality that is best suited to SMB/SMEs.
Looks like online backup is going the Ëœlowest common denominator’ route, somewhat like hosting did a few years back. Best of luck to those who put price before service with their critical business data. Give me chills just thinking about it!
