Should that be "Flush Re-Doo"? ;-)

Re: Review: Maxtor Central Axis 1TB Network Storage Server

jhuebel — Sat, 02 May 2009 11:03:49 -0000

Here are my suggestions for backup on various OSes:

- Windows: SelfImage - http://www.excelcia.org/modules.php?name=Conten...
- Mac OSX: Carbon Copy Cloner - http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html
- Linux: Bacula - http://www.bacula.org/en/

I've had experience personally with SelfImage and CCC, but I've only heard from friends about Bacula. They say they've had good success with it. I tend to use tar for Linux backups, then I mount a share on the NAS and copy to tarballs over.

Haha, fair enough. Well, I finally gave up on using the media service on the NAS. Instead, I run PS3 Media Server on my Windows machine and grab media off the NAS over the network. It works pretty well, since I have a gigabit switch.

Just found some more information about how to send pings to specific services supported by ping.fm: http://ping.fm/triggers/service/

My pleasure. Ping.fm has brought some sanity back to my social networking. If you guys could add picture ("@p") and videeo ("@v") uploading support so I could send pictures and videos through ping.fm to Flickr, Picasa, Multiply, Youtube, etc (for instance, from my cellphone or via email) that would rock. :-)

Do you happen to have a spare beta code for ping.fm, that looks like something I've been wanting for a while!

Thanks for the reply. I'm hunting for services I can use to post to all the social networks I'm a member of now. So far, looks like ping.fm is the way to go.

BTW, thanks for your enthusiasm on all these networks. Despite the gripes some people have about "spewage" lately, I personally enjoy following the day-to-day lives of some tech bigwigs. :-) If they don't like the SNR of a particular person, they're always welcome to unfollow.

FriendFeed has a pretty small limit too. It's about twice what Twitter lets you post. That's not very long. Also, if you reply to a Twitter post you can ask it to also send that reply to Twitter instead of just keeping it in FriendFeed. If you do that then you are limited to 140 characters.

Here's my only problem with Friendfeed: it doesn't have a 140 character limit. I realize you noted that as a plus for friendfeed, but I appreciate the fact that "tweets" (not "twits") are brief and to the point. That's what makes twitter useful-- its brevity.
