Idrive - Back up your files

What would you do if you lost your computer records, do you have a backup plan?

Idrive - www.idrive.com is a great product which provides 2GB storage as a free backup service with a reasonable price plan for higher volumes.

It is extremely simple to setup and the best thing is you can access files remotely from your backup.

It is something worth considering - the alternatives generally don't offer as much security as an online system.

I would be interested if you have other online back up options which are as good. Then post a comment below.

Conversation Marketing

I stumbled on an interesting new blog today - Conversation Marketing

Two interesting posts are:

The Internet Marketing Unlist: 49 Things You Probably Are Doing But Shouldn't

Read the whole post but the best ones are:
  • Having a flash intro to your site - so useless
  • Requiring registration for checkout - I have seen this on travel booking sites - it is painful and doesn't help the customer - offer the choice if you want but don't make it compulsory.
  • Ignore me. If I fill out the 'customer support' form on your site, answer me.
and

The Internet Marketing List: 59 Things You Should Be Doing But Probably Aren't

There are some good ideas in both these lists.

Check them out and also let us know of other interesting blogs.
