Tech Tip: Use box.net to back up!

When talking about the importance of backing up, I always think of the saying "There are two kinds of people in the world - those who back up and those who haven't lost everything yet." In hopes that you will never be one who loses everything, I wanted to tell you about this great offer from box.net.

Box.net is offering 50 gigabytes of cloud storage for FREE for 50 days. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss - even if you don't know what cloud storage is or even if you think you don't need it. Down the road you will be glad you signed up when it was free.

(BTW - Cloud storage is a term that refers to online space that you can use to store your data.)

Box.net also has apps for phones (iPhone, Android, Blackberry) and tablets including iPads. This makes backing up your music and photos easy.

From the box.net blog:
This promotion only runs for 50 days, so get your free space in the cloud by following these steps:
  1. Visit the app store and download the Box app for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
  2. Log in to your account or register for a new one directly from the app
  3. Start sharing and collaborating in the cloud
  4. (optional but recommended) Tell the world how you’ll use your 50 GB with the hashtag #Box50GB :)

The offer is good until noon on December 2, 2011.
