Heart of the City by Steenz for February 26, 2010

Yes indeed, nothing like a hard copy as a back-up, just in case.

On the CPU a got from my stepmother to trade for my broken one, it has pictures of her five daughters and family and such. Nothing lost yet.

Lol Old one style1 - little tecnology girls 0 :)

I keep copies on Webshots- especially of the really old photos and other favorites.

Thats why you put ‘em on disk.stick & makecopies for album.

I not only back my pictures up to an external hard drive on a regular basis (the drive my wife knows to go and grab should anything happen) but I also make sure to burn the archive to DVD and distribute it to the grandparents at regular intervals.

Mrs. Angelini knows how it works. And, since I very nearly had a similar problem once, my photos are now backed up on every computer in the house, a few CD ROMS, and a bag full of USB keys that come with me when I have to abandon the house due to disaster.

One of the main things that keeps me from going digital… so far.

Score one for Mrs. Angelini ! Still, I wonder what crashed. Mostly, the data can be recovered quite easily.

My ex-wife kept the paper photos, my computer crashed and ate the e-photos. Most of my life…Gone!

JP Steve > STill got the harddisk ? PC Inspector filerecovery can recover even from formatted rives, IIRC
