Just out of curiosity, do you keep a regular backup of your blog?
If you do, what do you use to create it and where do you store it.
I consider the backup a critical activity and every website owner should have this covered.

@eugenoprea I just use the regular old dvd writer/harddrive system. Like most of the stuff I produce I don’t want to lose any of it. Heaven knows I’ve duncily lost enough hardwork over the years.

Still do it the old fashioned way — create the originals in Word and save them there, then backup on dvd. Also, just to be even safer, I print out a copy and keep them in order in 3-ring binders with the dates posted. Makes it very simple when someone requests some info I gave who-knows-when.
