Here’s dropbox.  The summary is: sign up for an account and install some software. The software puts a folder in your My Documents folder (on a Mac, it’s in your home/documents folder). Anything you put in that folder is synchronized, quickly and neatly, to Dropbox servers located on the moon*.

• You can share files in a dropbox. That makes it really easy for people who don’t work in the same physical space to share files.
• I save my Quickbooks backup files there. Boom, instant online backup.
• All the asset files for our projects are stored in the company dropbox. I can get them anywhere, anytime.
• You can use a web interface instead of using a dropbox folder.

Protip: Sign up to dropbox using this link, and we both get an extra 250 MB of space on the moon.**

* The servers aren’t on the moon, but I don’t know where they are.

** No really, not on the moon. Seriously.

I LOST THE WEBSITE.

IT’S ALL GONE.

THERE WAS NO BACKUP.

DAMN YOU MICROSOFT

I will make a new one. And fix my backups.
