I was going do my normal monthly and quarterly backups today. But since Tuesday is World Backup Day (guess there's a day for everything), I might as well join the party then.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech...ackup-data-and-easily-save-photos/2926826001/Tuesday is World Backup Day, a made-up holiday that encourages the the sale of more products like hard drives and USB thumb drives.
That said, when's the last time you actually backed up your phone? Or computer? All of those precious photos sitting on the phone and not backed up could end up as distant memories if you lost the device or had it stolen.
And having your pictures posted on Facebook doesn't count as a backup. The social network greatly lowers the resolution after you've uploaded it, making it unsuitable as a second copy.
We're all at home now. Why not take a few minutes this weekend to back up our media.
