Are you meshed?
I signed up for Live Mesh this morning. I’m curious, but not super excited about it. It is still in the beta phase so it could crash and burn at any moment, but it is still worth looking at. I usually carry around a hard drive with all of my music and code samples. This might save me a lot of that hassle/risk. If I copy my music to a local disc (update as needed) and throw all of my code files into the cloud, I might be able to skip the whole thing. I do have backups of the disc from the nightly Home Server backup process, but it is still a hassle and a risk to carry around a hard drive all of the time.
At the office, I need to repair a RAID disc failure, get another backup protocol online and then start looking at backing everything up to the cloud. I am thinking JungleDisc might be the way to go based upon the current situation. Anything that I can reduce a process to a one-click and/or a click-and-forget is very good thing.
It’s all about data storage and retrieval. I wonder if MS has anything available to BizSpark members…
