Just a reminder (your data is Gone)

Matt from Rukuhia

Just a note to all my friends who use computers to do things- do back up your data.
If your data is important to you, don't assume it is safe.
If you get a cryptolocker (ransomware) virus, Your data is Gone (or at the least, very expensive to retrieve).

Just a note to all my friends who use computers to do things- do back up your data.
If your data is important to you, don't assume it is safe.
If you get a cryptolocker (ransomware) virus, Your data is Gone (or at the least, very expensive to retrieve).
If your hard drive in your computer fails (median lifetime of current hard drives is 6 years, 25% fail within first 4 years), Your data is Gone.
If the motherboard or power supply in your computer starts to fail, your data may be gone.
If your operating system or RAM does something silly, your data may be gone.
If you get a power spike/lightning strike and it makes it past your power supply, Your data is Gone.
If you have a blackout/brownout, your data may be gone.
If you accidentally delete your data, Your data is Gone.
If someone else deletes your data, Your data is Gone.
If your computer is stolen, Your data is Gone.
If someone steps on the screen of your laptop and it doesn't have an external display port, you're gonna have to pay someone to retrieve the data or Your data is Gone.
If Your data is Gone, Your data is Gone. When data is Gone it doesn't tend to return often if at all.

The easiest way to make your data 'not gone' is to back it up to an external hard drive (~$70 a terabyte nowadays) using a free backup program like the ones built into Mac OSX and Windows.
Another way is to have your documents in 'the cloud' (online on a server, somewhere) using Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive. The best solution is to do both, but it depends on how important your data is to you.

Be smart, be safe.

Introducing the Sooteater Chimney Cleaner

The Sooteater allows you to do this yourself without getting on your roof. Great if you have a high pitched roof/2 storey chimney. It cleans better than a brush and works with any drill. The Sooteater has been sold in New Zealand for many years and is even used by plumbers and chimney sweeps!
