Backing up your data is important, we all know that. However, backing up is often complicated and if your data i 't backed up and then stored off-site (i.e. not where your computer is) then your back up i 't truly safe. Enter Amazon's S3 service. Amazon has a bevy of computers waiting to hold your precious data in a safe, redundant, and off-site ma er. Amazon charges a very low rate for bandwidth and storage and the best thing is that they have an API for developers to code agai t.S3 Browser makes saving documents to and S3 'bucket' as simple as drag and drop. This a is open source, and started life as a diversion for the developer. Given those facts, S3 Browser is pretty slick.
