On-line backup services

[RJM62]

There has to be some way for my neighbor and I to back each other up over our home wireless networks. We can both see each other's routers. My house would have to burn pretty hot to destroy a backup at his house.

Be careful with offline backup services if you have a monthly data cap. You may not even know you have one - At one point, Comcast was imposing a limit in the fine print of its "unlimited" home service, and applications such as peer-to-peer movie bootlegging would trigger it.

Glory be, Paul, you've verily inspired me!

If you're really bored, build your own lasers... then aim them carefully between the houses, and then write your own Ethernet firmware...

You'll have a screaming fast local LAN between you and the neighbor in no time for backing up a few Terrabytes of useless crap on a hard drive! Wheee!
