Thanks for the recommendation, I'll look into it. Their price is a bit of a turn-off, though - at $0.80 GB/mo, backing up 20 GB costs $16 a month, while the same amount of storage on Google (where I back up all my digital photos) costs me 40 cents a month. With the other service mentioned earlier, the price is $5 per month for unlimited storage, so in theory I could back up a terabyte of movies for the same price (of course, it would probably take a year to upload a terabyte ;-)). I wonder what is rsync.net's discount for open source developers ;-) Maybe I should back up my photos to one place (Picasa Web, at $5 per 20GB per year and a fantastic web interface to view and share these backed up photos) and the rest of the content - not more than 7 GB (rsync.net's minimum) to rsync.net... -- Nadav Har'El | Tuesday, Sep 28 2010, 20 Tishri 5771 n...@math.technion.ac.il |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |May you live as long as you want - and http://nadav.harel.org.il |never want as long as you live. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
