This is such a great feature. Thank you guys!! - Mona N. via fftogo

Sweet! - AJ Kohn

very cool - sergiooo

I just saw that on my page! Congrats! - Nice Fish Films

Nice work! Just noticed... it preferenced "MG Siegler (friend of Bret Taylor) posted a link" over the entries of Bret Taylor himself (his were hidden as the dupes), tho he's my friend and more direct link - Christopher Galtenberg

Now if only Google Reader also implemented dup-detection as well. I'm sure that'd cut down my 'reading' time by 1/2. - Mark Derricutt

Nicely done, FF hackers. - Chris Baskind

i've come to talk with you again... - edythe

Because a vision softly creeping... - Donna Mugavero

Left its seeds while I was sleeping... - Larry Kless via twhirl

Don't ... Believe it or not. Back-up to my laptop. Maybe I should put it in a fireproof box? - Charlie Anzman

Ready to sign up for Carbonite, but I want to get feedback from the community first. - Shey

S3 with JungleDisk. - Mark Trapp

@Charlie lol -- yeah I'm looking to backup my comp. to somewhere other than where I live. - Shey

Thanks for this. I have external hardrive that I keep in a safety deposit box. Would like to use Carbonite. - Kate Kapetanakis

Carbonite has some issues behind the scenes. One of which includes not backing up an external hard drive. I am doing a post shortly with a review of a number of services. It's all I have been playing with the past two weeks :) - Tim Hoeck

S3 and Mozy. - Mack D. Male

Shey - I don't trust myself. I'm gonna trust somebody else? - Charlie Anzman

None. I do multiple full drive image backups twice monthly to external hard drives using Acronis True Image and store them in more than one location. Also mirror all of my data and photos between my desktop and laptop using MS SyncToy every day. That way I have an up to the minute backup on site as well as full drive backups. May sound a bit over kill, but this routine saved my butt big time when one of our careless IT people at work destroyed my PC with a botched profile transfer. Restored in 3.5 hrs - Jeff P. Henderson

Backups show a lack of faith! - Glenn Slaven

+1 for S3 w/ Jungle Disk - Trent Olson

lol@Glenn +1 - Shey

@Tim Hurry up!! :) When is it coming? Cuz I'm ready to upload - Shey

Wuala, Dropbox, Mozy, Xackup and S3 :) Fully redundant. Better safe than sorry - AJ Batac ♘

I should mention that I'd like to backup about 500GB...or more.. - Shey

@Shey, oh my. That's a job for a 1TB external HDD :D - AJ Batac ♘

I believe Mozy and/or Amazon S3 would be your best bet. - James Mowery via twhirl

I disagree with a number of these, particularly with that large amount. Amazon/Jungle Disk charge you for storage, and bandwidth use. Dropbox is in beta and only gives 2GB. I have problems with some interface issues with Mozy. It's coming... - Tim Hoeck

Dropbox & gmail - Mona N.

Jungle Disk + S3 - Cyndy

You can get a 1TB drive on buy.com for less than $200 shipped. Perhaps use an online backup for frequently accessed files and keep everything else on the physical drive. - Stupid Emoo (aka Tina)

@SB I need to have that 500GB backed up off-site. Tons of client work, personal stuff like music and photos -- I don't know what I'd do if I lost it all. - Shey

idrive.com -- simply the best 12 GB of backup - free and 150 gb for only 4 bucks - Saad Kamal

Carbonite. So far so good. I mostly chose it b/c I could back up an unlimited amount for very little $$. - Shannon Jiménez

@Shey: I'm recommending to a client the get 2 of the 1TB drives. Back up to both, keep on onsite and one in a safety deposit box at their bank. Another option is to consider a VPS hosting account with a fair amount of space. - Stupid Emoo (aka Tina)

@SB is that going to be cheaper than $50/year? - Shey

Dell DataSafe came free w/my computer (for a yr) so I'm using that for now. Plus Live Mesh. - Sarah Perez

for users of online backup, how's the performance? How long does it take to backup 100GB? - Jason Carreira

It took Carbonite about a day to backup my ~150 GB. But the program is great about not interfering with system performance while backup is happening, and everything from then on is automatically backed up only when it changes. - Shannon Jiménez

Does it handle being interrupted in the middle well? My laptop isn't usually in one place for a whole day, so would it die if it went offline and came back online later? - Jason Carreira

Yeah, my internet connection is spotty at times (damn you, Comcast!) and it just remembers where it was when the connection is broken and starts up again when it comes back. - Shannon Jiménez

@Shey: Well, if you get a single 1TB drive for $200 and keep it in a safety deposit box, the cost equals out after a couple of years. So no, it's not necessarily cheaper up front, but it will cost you less over time. Plus, your data is a short drive and transfer away. If it takes a day to upload 150 GB to Carbonite, how long is the download? Or how long does it take to get the DVD backups from them? Basically, in the event of an emergency, how quickly do you have to get everything back? - Stupid Emoo (aka Tina)

@SB True say. I guess the trade off is easy auto and instantaneous backup - Shey

I backup to my Windows Home Server, it backs up to S3 - Soulhuntre via twhirl

Backup? Is "backing up" some mysterious thing from the land of Canada? xD - Mark Forman

I was using CrashPlan and was ready to drop the cash for it, when I discovered it didn't like JDK6 on OSX (which is apparently now fixed on the next release) - Mark Derricutt

S3 and JungleDisk; used to use Mozy, then Carbonite. Got badly burned with Streamload/Mediamax (now Nirvanix). - Sean McBride

@Shey: http://friendfeed.com/e/b69544... - hope you find it useful.. I tried a number of services the past two weeks. If you have any questions, let me know. - Tim Hoeck
