Drop Box Looks Like Promising Online Backup Solution
A friend of mine made me aware of a new online backup service call DropBox, his review is here.
A key difference with DropBox, currently in Beta, is that you can sign up multiple computers to the same account - then the computers will all sync to the data in the drop box.
You can undelete files or restore old versions, even invite friends or family (if you have any of either!) to a shared folder with rights you assign.
There is already a client for both Windows and Mac and soon Linux.
I normally aren’t too crazy about online backup solutions, but this one has promise. I’ll blog in the future about ways to overcome my one biggest objection - security.
’til then..
