Comments on: The Busy Writer: Revisiting Backups http://sububi.org/2007/03/12/the-busy-writer-revisiting-backups/ Computing, education, and some embedded bits Fri, 11 Feb 2011 23:43:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Matt http://sububi.org/2007/03/12/the-busy-writer-revisiting-backups/#comment-1276 Matt Tue, 13 Mar 2007 16:11:35 +0000 http://www.sububi.org/2007/03/12/the-busy-writer-revisiting-backups/#comment-1276 Hi Tom, The "plug-in" for the sequence at the top is, erhm, a "Matt Plug-In". That means Matt finds the URLs for the previous posts, and writes the HTML for that line. So, I guess that makes it a "manual plug-in", or... well, just me writing some HTML. And Dave, yes, I do like the feature progression. The use of EC2 for some of the nifty trickery on the back-end is very slick, also. Jungle Disk is progressing from a tool that was a novelty (at the start) to something that has a lot of very useful and powerful features for backup. That, I think, is great. Keep up the excellent work! Hi Tom,

Funny that you should mention version control next, as that is going to be one of our top post-1.30 features. Glad you like the feature progression in Jungle Disk.

And I'm particularly eager to read your thoughts about version control. By the way, what plug-in are you using that adds the "sequence" of posts at the top. A useful tool.
