Have you noticed how much important information you have in your computer? If you did probably you’ve already done a backup of most of it if not all.
Myself I work a lot with digital formats which are very important now and for the future, I should backup more off my stuff and putting it online is a great way to have my information available all over the world. Imagine how useful would it be if you travelled far away and your laptop broke down, just by going online in any computer in the world you could retrieve your documents.
Internet is the future and I believe that in the future internet will be so fast that we will have most of our and others information available at the distance of a click in any place in the world, and now the optic fiber cables for internet connections show that not even this economical downfall can stop the development of the internet.
My favorite site for online backups is IDrive because is fast, easy to use and secure. You can have 2 GB for free or go for a plan that costs you $4.95/month with 150 GB. If you are an entrepreneur you can also join the business plan starting at $9.95 for 50 GB storage.
IDrive Online Backup works on Windows and Mac and I advise you to also check IDrive Lite to backup contacs information, and IDrive Portable for local backups that works with any external USB drive.
