I am rubbish technically and crap with backups but I will try to take some of your useful advice from now on. I stumbled your blog too. Great looking site.

I don’t think people have to pay for online storage. There are too many free services available!
To some degree I agree with you. There are a few limitations with free services. Sometimes they may not be secure, limited in space, or the service isn’t very good. For backing up data, those are very serious points to consider.
