[B513]Best Online Storage Sites
by Jason Kay, Jas

Online storage sites have become more and more popular as we have more of our important personal, work and financial documents on our personal computers. The invention and popularity of digital cameras has also meant that we often have a large amount of unprinted digital photos on our hard drive that can be devastating to lose. Having such data backed up at an external site that is completely safe in case the worst were to happen and we lost all computer data has become very important. Online storage sites do just that, they provide a totally secure site for all your electronic files, so even if your home is completely destroyed, you will still have access to those precious documents.

Much competition has sprung up in terms of online storage sites, however there are several which have definitely risen to the forefront as being amongst the best. Each offers something different and is worth checking out.

Mozy: This site offers an impressive 2MB of secure encrypted free online storage to home users. Unlimited storage is also available for a small monthly fee. Mozy also offers a Pro version for businesses. Mozy is such a great program because you can preset backup times and dates and all the work will be done for you. It does require downloading the Mozy software onto your computer.

Carbonite: This website is completely free of charge for the first 15 days and offers unlimited free storage. However, there are limitations on the size of files you can store there. It continuously backs up new data on your PC. The data is then encrypted and stored at their remote backup center. Others can also access your files if you give them this option and allow them to share your files. There are more enhanced versions that have fees for use, but the basic Carbonite service is an uncharted diamond in terms of useful websites.

Box: Box.net is an online storage site that specializes in offering freedom of access and easy manipulation of files from anywhere. Only 1 MB of information can be stored free of charge and after that there are multiple levels of pricing. The flexibility in the use and manipulation of your online documents is what makes Box stand out amongst other companies of its type.

Dropbox: This storage site has a unique feature that other similar services do not. You can use your account on multiple computers and they update simultaneously. Whenever you use the downloaded dropbox to update a file all the other dropboxes on your account automatically update because they are in sync. This is one of the easiest online storage services to use

In a world where years of work can be wiped out by a hard drive crashing or a virus infecting your computer, online backup can mean the difference between disaster and slight delay. Take the time to research the options available for online storage and save yourself lots of potential headaches.


Online dating is an exciting new way for you to make romantic connections with the man or woman of your dreams. We all need all the help we can get. We use connections from friends, clubs, bars and parties . . . anything we can figure out that works to find new people to date and places where available singles might congregate.

As you look into new alternatives you might explore personal ads, blind dates, etc., but online dating is another whole world. The good thing is the internet is full of really helpful dating sites that can help us make just the right kind of contact with the types of people we know we will hit it off with.

But before beginning your search, you will need some guidelines on how to choose the right service for you. Online services usually charge a membership fee and you sure do not want to sign up for every one you are curious about. Plus it takes time to get used to the features so you want to quickly pick just the right one, get your subscription going, and get started on your way to a fun and exciting online romantic life. So here are a few guidelines on how to pick one.

After you do an initial scan and develop perhaps a list of a dozen or two sites that might be candidates, you can begin to develop a checklist to compare their features. The use of a spreadsheet is excellent for this. You can build a pretty complete list of features without spending any money on them. As you browse through the different features pages of various online dating services, sometimes that alone will help eliminate some from the list.

Determine what your target is. If you want to belong to two or three services, then you can have some variety in your services. Much of that is a budget decision. So on your comparison sheet or spreadsheet, make sure you have a place to describe the costs. If it is a one-time cost, show that or if there is a monthly subscription, show that. Once you get all the services you like listed, it will become apparent pretty quickly which ones are overpriced or beyond your budget and that, too, will help you narrow down your list.

So you have two big criteria: cost and variety of features and services to use for comparison. The third criteria is specializations. You will find dating services that cater to certain age groups, to certain ethnic, religious or regional needs, and even to certain sexual or special interest groups, such as people who like art or music. You will see as you review each site if they are targeted to just that group. From there you can determine which appeals to you and what you want. If you wish to use the service to meet women in your area to eventually connect with, you do not want to waste your time or money on a service geared to another part of the country.

Take some time performing this evaluation perhaps a day or two and when you get done you will feel satisfied that you picked just the right dating service for you. Better yet, you will see results begin to happen for you and start making really great romantic connections on your service because you took the time to pick the right one.
