FileSlinger™ Backup Reminder 11-03-06: Just One More…

November 3, 2006 by Sallie Goetsch Leave a Comment

Most backup strategies have weak points, which is why it’s good to have more than one in place. A colleague who specializes in risk management once said to me that the correct answer to the question “How many backups do you need?” is “Just one more.” My own experience at the 2006 Podcast Expo proves this.I was giving a presentation about “Creating and Keeping Raving Fans” for your podcast.

FileSlinger™ Backup Reminder 9-2-05: Backups in the Air, on the Air, and Underwater

September 2, 2005 by Sallie Goetsch Leave a Comment

It seems like everywhere I turn these days I hear about backups. I was reading The Everything Guide to Writing a Book Proposal and there, on page 198, under the heading “Protecting Your Professional Image,” is a warning to back up. “One writer, two days before she was due to turn in several chapters to her editor, found that the diskette she had been using to store her work had been damaged … [Read more...]
