    The app for tablets and such isn't so great. If you use the program however, even on a windows 8 as a program, or on the web it's fucking awesome. It works as both a note pad and also allows you to same files within notes - sort of an alternative to emailing yourself power point presentations or word documents for printing.

    Good Idea, most of it's just random thoughts that never made it to the final drafts just stuff I enjoy looking at and laughing :)

    Good luck. (When doing big back-ups, I usually start with the stuff I can't bare to lose and then make my way through everything else. XD)

    You know what's harder than backing up 32 pages of drafts? Losing 32 pages of drafts. I know it sucks because it can be a task, but as someone who's lost work that wasn't backed up enough, I think the time spent backing it up is definitely worth it.

    I've tried Evernote as a Notepad-type option for my Kindle and it didn't work well...I didn't know it was meant to be a storage thing.

    There's a point (32 pages of drafts) where backing up becomes impossible ... (Not even counting stuff posted)

    I use SkyDrive to store a lot of my stories. It's great because not only can I access them from my computer very easily, there's also an app for it so I can access from my phone, too.

    I also like to email stories to myself, just as another way of backing my stuff up. :)

    I agree with the 1n5p1ration. CDs aren't outdated! D:< At first, I thought the article was referring to floppy discs, not CDs. Facepalm Hahaha.

    I enjoyed this article. I've had my fair share of computer crashing and lost of work.

    I like this article. It's full of useful information and ideas for saving work when it comes to writing. I myself, use Google drive a lot seeing as I have a Google account. I find it really easy to use and you don't have to save your work as Google drive saves it automatically for you. You can also download Google drive for you PC which means you can have a folder on your desktop with all your work in. You can work on word, open office etc and just drag your document, or like me, copy and paste it into the folder and immediately, it's in. It's less hassle and it's really great on the go if you have to go somewhere or just travelling.

    I personally use evernote. Its a free site that lets you create notebooks and from there you can stack them. Yiu can acess it from your computer as a progream, the web and from a phone app. Honestly one of the best things ive ever used.

    Great article.
    I personally use Dropbox (which I love because it has an app for my phone) for my writing, music and pictures AND I use a USB stick that I have on my keys just to be safe so that wherever I am I always have everything with me. I can't tell you how many times I've lost EVERYTHING because I didn't back it up.
