Clouds on Gladinet’s Horizon

May 9, 2010 by Sallie Goetsch 2 Comments

If I spend the first several paragraphs apologizing and making excuses for not posting a column since April 2nd (ouch!), I’ll just be adding insult to injury. The Ur-Guru said to blame him, but he’s only been here since April 24th, so that won’t work. I just got caught up in other things—and I only wish all of it had been high-paying client work, which is the kind of excuse I like to be able to … [Read more...]

CloudBerry: Amazon S3 Backup the Easy Way

February 26, 2010 by Sallie Goetsch 7 Comments

Back in January when I wrote about Automatic WordPress Backup, Andy K. from CloudBerry Lab popped up in the comments on the cross-post to the WordPress Asylum site asking why I had recommended S3Fox over his company’s product, CloudBerry S3 Explorer. (For the simple enough reason that S3Fox was the first product I’d come across, and worked as a Firefox plugin.) It seemed to me that I’d heard the … [Read more...]

GoodSync—and File Backup, Too

February 19, 2010 by Sallie Goetsch 2 Comments

A good two months ago—or perhaps not so good, from his point of view—the long-suffering Richard Krueger of SS|PR contacted me about GoodSync Enterprise, the new corporate version of  GoodSync Pro, a consumer tool that’s been around since 2006 but about which I hadn’t written before. (So much software, so little time.) It was a good press release: nobody was excited, and the quote from a VP … [Read more...]

A New Way to Back Up WordPress

January 15, 2010 by Sallie Goetsch Leave a Comment

If you search the WordPress plugin repository for “backup”, you’ll get—as of today—195 results. I wrote about two of those plugins, WordPress Database Backup and WordPress Backup by BTE, just about a year ago, and installed them on all 8 of my own WP sites, as well as insisting that my clients use WP-DB-Backup at minimum. Both of those plugins back up different parts of a WordPress … [Read more...]

How do YOU Back up Your Computer? FileSlinger™ Backup Reminder 12-28-07

December 28, 2007 by Sallie Goetsch 4 Comments

Here it is the end of another year of backups—almost time to make those special year-end copies of your important data to store with your tax records. I thought I’d do something a bit different for today’s column, so I put a question out to my LinkedIn network asking the people I know what they do for backups. (And no, this is not what “networked backups” means.) Most of the answers came as … [Read more...]
