I keep certain directories on my [[MacBook Pro]] and [[Hackintosh]] synchronized using [[Unison]]. I thought using cloud-based synchronization (like [[Google Drive]], Dropbox, or SugarSync) was overkill. I investigated [http://www.goodsync.com/ GoodSync] and Syncables 360, but [http://raywoodcockslatest.blogspot.com/2012/03/synchronizing-two-computers-goodsync.html user reviews] were generally poor. (Syncables 360 had the worst Amazon ratings curve I've ever seen.) I also looked at Chronosync, which [http://www.macworld.com/article/2011101/review-chronosync-4-3-5-a-multitalented-file-sync-and-backup-tool.html looked interesting], but [http://www.macnews.com/content/macsimum-reviews-version-40-chronosync-more-flexible-ever without live syncing], did not seem to be a compelling alternative to [[Unison]].

Backups

I'm planning on subscribing to CrashPlan, which is very highly regarded and also has very good storage plans (which makes options like Amazon Glacier and duplicity irrelevant).

Cloud Backup

  • Spanning for Google Apps
  • Social media (Twitter, Facebook)
  • Evernote
  • Websites

Security

Use WPA-Enterprise (or WPA2-Enterprise) with 802.1X authentication instead of pre-shared key to avoid Firesheep attacks on your network.
