There is also an issue about how valuable your data is. I have found it 
useful to distinguish between the levels of priority of my data. For my 
most valuable material, I use rysnc to keep a copy with rysnc.net [1]. 
This has the advantage of being fully automated. For the rest of it, I 
use Unison [2] and an external hard-drive.

Hi to the list, by the way!
