Get 10% off your subscription to Mozy AND money from me.
Here’s all you have to do:
- First, sign up for Mozy with my referral link (and get $10-15 free money)
- Then, when signing up, there will be a box where you can type in a promotion code. “JUNE” gets you 10% off an annual or biannual subscription to Mozy!
The above code is only good during June 2008. If you found this link and it’s not currently June 2008, look on my blog for a more current Mozy discount code.

I discovered a Memopal (www.memopal.com) “cutting edge solution for online
backup”
They merged online backup, online storage and file sharing services into one product.
If you try this service you will notice that (contrary to most competitors):
- You can access your files in (true) real time with a web browser
- They really offer 250 GB (some competitors offer a fake unlimited web
space, they say “fair use”)
- You can share a file or many files with the 1-click-share functionality
- Some of your files will be uploaded very very fast (turboupload)
- The service and website are in 10 different languages
I’ve also found two useful guide to online backup on Wikipedia:

Michelle79, thanks for the advertisement. The language on the Memopal site gives me pause. It’s obviously not written by a native English speaker. the license statement has a weird EU flavor as pertains to the privacy of data. And your statement about data privacy in the FAQ, “The staff adhere to a code of ethics to respect privacy” doesn’t give me confidence. And this doesn’t work for me, “Our technology, in fact, archives files in one of the data centers at our disposal, and registers users in another server kept in a different geographical location. In this way it is impossible to associate a file to a specific user.” I don’t think that word, “impossible” means what you think it means.
That said, it may be a worthwhile service. I’m sticking with Mozy though.
