There is a lot of pitfalls that you’d really need to know about though, regarding online computer backup. The trouble is that many of the Internet backup providers give you the impression that they are a one stop service.

One thing they normally don’t tell you is that you’re only backing up small subset of the files on your computer. An example of this is when they only back up your my documents folder. There is still a lot of data that is not being backed up with this type of service.

I have, for example, well over 300 gigabytes of data on my hard drive. This includes video, audio and several documents. That’s not good enough, I want everything to be backed up properly. Needless to say, using an online backup service could be a problem for me simply because it got too much to back up.

Even if I was to back everything up to one of these online services, it’d be brutal to recover it online. Imagine if I had to restore or 300 GB of data. I did a little bit calculating annotate probably about a week and a half to store everything.

I’m not saying that online computer backup services are bad thing, but you have to realize the limitations of these types of services.

Another thing you need to consider when looking at online computer backup services, is how secure your data actually is. I would hate find out that my confidential information was being shared on the Internet. I’m sure that this doesn’t happen very often but whenever your daily use your computer and is on the Internet then that has to be in your mind. If you have confidential documents I think that you should never use an online backup service.

But the Velcro watch straps remain – and rightly so. I don’t know how many watches I have lost over the years because of a malfunctioning watch strap. Either the buckle comes unstitched, or those little spring bars that attached to the sides of the watch gave in, and the whole watch disappeared forever.

The first Velcro was invented in Switzerland and was made of cotton velour and a loopy cotton crocheted material – hence the name vel from velour and cro from crochet. It wasn’t terribly efficient when it was first invented, being made from cotton meant it wasn’t terrible tactile or durable. I can remember even back in the 70s Velcro watch straps used to act like lint rollers, after a few weeks of wear they would pick up bits of fluff from whatever you were wearing and looked pretty awful after a while.

With the huge strides made in the plastics and materials industry, Velcro watch straps today are amazing things. They last forever, are washable, waterproof, come in every different size and color imaginable, and for all those years of technology, they are incredibly cheap. So cheap in fact you can buy a Velcro watch strap to match whatever outfit you want to wear, for just a couple of dollars, and you will never have to worry about losing your watch.

Numerous online backup services like Mozy, Sugar Sync and Elephant drive have sprung up to fill the demand for fast, safe and secure online backup option, and there are many reasons why users are moving towards online backups rather than conventional tape or DVD-R backups.

1) Security

Files are stored encrypted on a disc drive on the file server, unlike traditional tape drives which are prone to data corruption over time, disc drives are fail safe for several decades, and unlike tape drive, disc drives can be encrypted.

2) Automation

The main reason why conventional backups don’t work [at least from the consumer end] is that they are implemented frequently enough for it to be worthwhile, an outdated backup take several months back is not satisfactory and still requires several days and weeks of work in order to bring the old archive up to date.

3) Location free

With the rise of mobile workers, from freelancers and consultants to employees who simply elect to work from home. Online backups really come into good use here, as workers can make backups from any location and can also view their files from multiple computers, making desk free work a viable option.

4) Economies of scale

An in-house or a physical backup can be quite expensive, and not every business [particularly not SME's] has a budget for expensive and intricate backup implementation.

5) Less resource hungry than you think

Unlike desktop backup options which take a snapshot of an entire drive which can be very time consuming online backup services work on the fly, although the initial backup can use up a lot of bandwidth, any future backups only take a minimal amount of time as only the modified files are uploaded. So backups do not interfere with end users experience what so ever.
