World Backup Day is amongst us once again, and today – it is our duty as webmasters, business owners, cellphone users, and well – data owners – to backup all our files. Granted you should already be maintaining backups on a regular basis – however if you’re not today is the perfect day to start with some awesome World Backup Day Offers.
If you’re a bit unsure about the important of keeping your own backups – I wrote an article just for you about that: Always Make Your Own Backups – inspired by my very own scenario where a substantial amount of important files got corrupted during a routine SAN disk maintenance. Believe me – you don’t want to be going through that.
This independent initiative to raise awareness about backups and data preservation started out — like most good things on the internet – on reddit by a couple of concerned users. Since then it has spread to a widely “celebrated” day – with plenty companies running some awesome World Backup Day offers.
