Backup Your Valuable Blog

Filed under Blog

What are your valuable rants and raves worth? What am I talking about? Every day you put blood, sweat and tears into producing interesting and controversial blog posts about your niche. Now, ask yourself, what’s your time worth?

I don’t know about you, but when I say this new service called IDrive-B, I was ready to sign up. I know there’s a plug-in for WordPress where you can backup your database, but not everybody is running WP and not everyone is tech savvy. So this is an affordable way to go where you can backup your blogs and not have to remember it.

Why would you want to? Well, I was blogging along on WP for a while and a few of the tables got corrupted. Do you know what happens when that happens? Well, it ain’t pretty. I had the plugin going, but I still had a heart-attack when I arrived to find my blog showing gibberish. For $4.95 a month, I could sleep easier knowing that all my efforts are not in vain. And you don’t have to remember to back it up.

IDrive-B (http://www.idrive.com) is a new feature addition to IDrive-E to backup your blogs. You can sign for free or a paid pro account. You can view and restore your blog data within 24 hours after setting it up first time; after the first backup, subsequent backups are automatically executed periodically. Blog backup storage is limited to 1GB.

In addition, IDrive-E offers other standard features including encrypted Online Backup for your critical data on your PC, free up to 2GB and unlimited for $4.95/month. Now that’s something worth considering. It works itself over the Internet and you don’t have to remember to manually backup.

Check it out today!

Gareth Gates’ Comeback

Filed under Gareth Gates,Lyrics

From FemaleFirst.co.uk comes this info about Gareth Gates making his phenomenal comeback in music. He has an exclusive interview here.

Now I must admit that I wasn’t a fan of Gareth Gates, but

Following the success of his top 15 hit ‘Changes’, Gareth Gates is well and truly back on the music scene.

On June 18th he releases his second single ‘Angel On My Shoulder’, which is Gareth’s personal favourite on his forthcoming album ‘Pictures Of The Other Side’.

After notching up over 3 million record sales in under two years, Gareth spent 3 ½ years out of the public eye, devoting his time to writing and recording his new material, and also concentrating on improving his speech after working with and for The McGuire Programme.

The latest single campaign saw him achieve many of his personal career goals, including an array of live TV pieces and a particularly great, honest interview on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross, from which he garnered a lot of praise and new fans.

‘Angel On My Shoulder’ is a very moving and poignant track, and one that everyone can relate to in some way.

Some of Mr. Gates favorites are as follows:

He can be found over at the hot music boards like Cool Charity, BuzzJack and Digital Spy.

His unofficial fan clubs are pretty neat, too. If you are looking for like-minded folks, surf on over to WholelotofGareth or SugarBoxGirl. Sugar has downloads and news.

If you’re into back stuff, look at what Hazel has to offer with charts and such.

And let’s not forget the ever popular and always present Myspace offering. Every music group is on Myspace and Gareth is no exception. Find him here: Gareth on Myspace

Lastly, if you want to hear and see Gareth in concert, here’s a YouTube for ya!
