New Podcast At TWIT

Leo Laporte over at TWIT has a new podcast. Called TWIg (This Week In Google). The co-host are Leo of course, Gina Trapani founder of Lifehacker and Jeff Jarvis author of “What Would Google Do“. I watched the first episode. It was a little dry and newsy because the big story this week was the Google Voice app being removed from the iPhone app store but a suspect the show will get a lot better. There are plans to have developers and product manager from Google to come to talk about the actual products. It will probably get a name change because it may eventually become a show less about Google and more about The Cloud.

Gladinet Cloud Desktop

Thanks to Zack who commented to my SkyDrive post for this one!

Gladinet is the future! It is Web 3.0! Gladinet is a great little application that brings all of your online storage to your desktop as virtual drives. Use online storages (Not only SkyDrive but ADrive, Google Docs, Amazon S3 , and others.) as if they were local folders on your computer. Access local folders on your home computer remotely as if they were right there (only with standard version which is only available by invitation right now). But you can download free version now.

There is so much more in this appliction I’ll let this video tell you about it.

JungleDisk and S3

RULE #1: If you don’t have two copies of a file on different media you don’t have the file. This being the case you have to back-up continuously. Backing up to an external drive or network drive is a good way to do this, but what happens of there’s a fire and all of your computers and backups are destroyed? All of those family photos and important business documents gone.

A great way to back-up is to a server over the Internet. One of the best services to do this is Amazon’s S3 using Jungledisk. JungleDisk is the interface for S3. S3 just gives you the storage space and JungleDisk turns that space into a drive on your computer. Jungle disk cost $20 to use forever. As many computers as you like. All the upgrade for the software as long as the the company exist.

Amazon charges you a very small fee for storage and a somewhat larger fee for the transfer. There will be one large charge (though still very affordable) It will be even better now because they are dropping the price November.

The newest version can be used to backup your Windows Home Server.
