I need to sort out automated backup for my pcs at home. Local drives aren’t going to cut it, not least because they offer nothing against the risk of a catastropic event at home. (e.g. burglery / fire).
So we’re in the market for something that can do automatic, incremental backups. Offline, over the internet.
So far […]
I tap away at this blogging malarky for many reasons but, as in everything, I strive to improve.
So, I was looking to augment the technology powering this blog, with a means to gather quick feedback. ds-rating-plugin is a candidate: it provides the means to allow readers to star-rate postings.

I agree with Rohan: last night’s democamp failed to live up to expectations.The demos
The best demo was indeed Sunir’s demonstration of the Design Bibliography wiki, which had some pretty funky gadgets to support the application-specific workflow. Yet as I’ve said to Sunir before, there are plenty of wikis out there (40 new *wiki*.(com|org|net) sites are […]
