Mozy for backup is pretty cool

For a while I’d been using Amazon S3 with Jungle Disk as a backup solution of sorts. However Amazon changed the pricing model a bit a while back, and Jungle Disk doesn’t really play nicely with rsync based solutions like iBackup.app.

My friend Sutha told me about Mozy. It is a really nice solution for backup. I like the Mac client which has some of the features of iBackup.app but is way less complex. It has Growl integration and a menubar icon, etc, the usual stuff. What is cool is that you can get 2GB of free storage by signing up via https://mozy.com/registration/free?code=C88WPG. If you add my referral code C88WPG at the end of the sign up you get another free 256mb of space, and so do I.

I haven’t run out of space yet but if you do you can upgrade to unlimited storage for $4.95 a month. Oh and the whole thing is encrypted so it’s nice and secure.
