Yeah, so we're slackers...

We still update The P5. But if we slack off, there's a search box up there on the right. Yeah, the red box, that's it. Search The P5 Archives. You'll be glad you did.

SpiderOak

|

THIS IS NOT A PAID ADVERTISMENT

I found this great FREE site, SpiderOak, where you can backup, sync, share your documents, pix, music across multiple computers. Works with Windows, Mac and Linux. Click the referral link to download SpiderOak and we both receive an extra GB for FREE.
3GB FREE from The P5


More info:
I actually use a combination of sites for online backup.

Dropbox is good but you have to copy everything to your Dropbox folder.
getdropbox.com

I'm also trying UbuntuOne which is still pretty new and really lacking in features. Only works with Ubuntu as far as I know.
UbuntuOne.com

Cool thing with SpiderOak is that you can sync any folders on your computer so I can actually sync Dropbox, UbuntuOne and SpiderOak files on all of my computers.

Thanks gclot, it works fine on my XP laptop. Maybe you have a firewall issue???

Did you get an error message?

Also works on my Ubuntu Linux pc. Now I can sync the two of them.

SpiderOak works just fine on any Windows, Mac and Linux system. I run it under XX/Windows 7 and Snow Leopard.
