Have you done your backup recently? There’s no time like NOW!
Join the Twitter Party on #AcronisWBD at 4pm today to learn about backup and win prizes!
Established in 2011, World Backup Day serves to remind people the importance of protecting their data.
#AcronisWBD Twitter Party today 4pm
I have been invited by Acronis to co-host a Twitter Party today from 4-5pm, so we can have some fun learning more about backup, answer some quiz questions and win some prizes along the way.
I will be posing a question on data security and will be giving away a Polaroid Zip mobile printer to a lucky Twitter follower who tweets the correct answer.
So do join us on Twitter via the hashtag #AcronisWBD. Just click on the link.
Good Luck!
So backup now by making a copy of your data so you won’t lose it in case something happens to your computer.
So even if you’re hit by a virus, hardware failure, natural disaster, or anything else, you can restore your system from a reliable backup.
Here are three ways you can backup your data.
- External media. There is a wide variety of external storage media you can choose, including USB drives, external hard drives, DVDs and more.
- Cloud storage. Your internet connection means there are many cloud storage services available to you. Some are free, some you pay for.
- Network drives. If your computer is on a local area network (LAN), you can backup to a network folder or network attached storage (NAS) device.

Canon ushers in the Lunar New Year in Singapore with an early Lohei lunch.
Canon Singapore hosted the annual Lohei lunch with media at Aura restaurant at the National Gallery Singapore.
To the left of the menu in the cover photo above, you can see the PowerShot SX430 IS.
The immediate reaction upon lifting up the camera is that it is incredibly light.
Preview of the new IXUS 190 (left) & PowerShot SX430 IS. These were part of 4 new compact cameras Canon has just unveiled. Prices & availability TBA.
So light that I thought it was a plastic prototype with nothing inside.
But it’s a fully functional superzoom with 45x optical zoom going from 24 to 1080mm.
Canon Lunar New Year media lunch in Singapore: Black Cod with Caciucco Sauce & Seasonal Vegetables – served at Aura in National Gallery Singapore.
