Blogging on "The Blog-Off"

by jenniferd
Today is the first day of the rest of my blogging life -- The 2008 Blog-Off: Water Blog vs. Cross Blog . Today I will begin my first of five posts that puts those pesky Cross Bloggers in their place -- managing emergencies and begging for blood. Not blogging. Here's today's challenge and my instructions to you, faithful and loyal readers: Today's challenge presented by local media: Base a post on the following news article that's relevant to your organization. Difficulty level: Way easy http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/world/asia/19pstan.html?hp -Presented by Corey Pein of Willamette Week and Amy Ruiz of the Portland Mercury As I'm sure you already read a couple weeks ago, the Water Blog won the Mercury's pre-game, favorite blog contest , fair and square, so I know we can take the cake this week too.

We're back...

by shooter
computer crash It didn't have anything to do with the Neighborhood Notes website, one of our office computers crashed. All the data was recovered, nothing was lost except for the time to figure out what happened, reinstall the operating system, and then restore the data. Unfortunately, this took most of the day.

When something like this happens it is a good reality check about back up. If you don't do it regularly, you should. Your life will be much easier when your computer crashes—and it will. I've been through it a few times. Sometimes it's not so bad, like today, where nothing was lost and everything was restored. Other times you lose important data.

Those are the worst.

If you don't have a back up plan, make one. On a Mac with Leopard, you can use Time Machine to automatically schedule backups. I'm sure there are more than enough applications on Windows to do something very similar. Hard drives are cheap, important data is priceless.
