jwz: Classic backup advice
Merlin Mann | Jan 21 2008
This forum question about a comment I made on the most recent MacBreak Weekly reminds me that I mention jwz's advice on backup often enough that it's worth reposting the URL (as well as making sure credit goes where it's due). On the one hand, his advice could hardly be simpler (that's one reason I like it), but how many of us have taken the time to put a mature backup regime in place? If you value your data, can't tolerate downtime, and are casting about for a thorough solution, consider giving this a try.

jwz is a man of strong opinions and he always has been. Here, he is framing himself as a platform partisan, and if that troubles you, then you need to do what you need to do. But it doesn't change a scintilla about the awsomeness of the advice. Also, come on: that's a hilarious throwaway line when you don't take it out of context. (My Lord, scolding is dull.) » POSTED IN:
