Great, seeing how depressing my journal looked like, I decided to throw in a quick post…

I’ve pretty much been stuck in front of some sort of monitor for many many hours on end. Sometimes I get the feeling 24 hours is not enough for everything I want/need to accomplish… There. I said it. I’ve been hearing that quote a million times, now I get to actually say with all honesty!

Yep, now it’s time to kick back and rest since my Time Capsule is backing up my entire drive…

Basically instead of dishing out for an iPhone, effectively giving a leg and an arm for it (on a monthly basis) I thought I’d invest in a new back-up drive. The last one I had was a basic 250gb external HDD firewire and backed up by Time Machine. Well, that one got fried by a split-second energy surge. Tried a couple of progs and apps to win back my old backups - 8 months worth to be exact.

All said and done, I didn’t experience any terrible file losses or lost documents in the few weeks I had to go without. I finally made up my mind and went and got myself the 500GB Time Capsule, which is backing up my files since this morning at 6am as we speak.

Second on my list would have been the MyBook 1TB Office Edition, actually. Actually had a difficult time getting one… No turning back now. Pretty happy with my Time Capsule so far. Now I can get to finally backup my MBPro at the same time.

Pretty important to have a major backup system like the Time Machine as a graphic designer though. Sometimes I overwrite files while working on them, busy beating the deadline. Some important assests get rasterized, cropped or deleted. Good thing I just need to “jump back in time” and pull it back out.

Speaking of lack for updates… I think I should go with twitter someday instead…
