Minor Technical Difficulties
My main computer’s hard drive died yesterday. Most everything is backed up, including all but the last few days of my writing progress. (My photos, on the other hand, are in the hands of the local computer shop to see how much data they can salvage off the drive. I’m pretty hopeful they’ll be able to get most of it.)
In the meantime, I may be a bit sparse online.

Terribly sorry to hear this. I’ve been there. 🙁 I’ll spam a teeny, tiny bit and say Carbonite is a great single computer backup option and Cubby if you also want to keep multiple computers in sync with each other (and backed up). I use both for different bits (Carbonite for media files like mp3s that live in just one place and Cubby for Documents and Pictures that I want on multiple machines).

I’m happy with OneDrive, which is free for Windows users.

We have multiple computers and so went with Mozy at the Great Not-Quite-Backed-Up-Enough Hard Disk Crash of ’08. This has worked very well when we get new computers and put the files on the new drive.
Most recently used it when I took a new laptop to dinner and backhanded a glass of diet coke into it.
