My advice for today to my fellow webmasters...

Webmasters:

You should keep all your shit backed up on your hard drives. Get out of the habit of deleting pages off your computer once you upload, a habit which I know a lot of you have. It's a bad habit. Bad. Stop it.

I don't know how many people I've seen over the years complain about how all their galleries were lost etc because of server problems or hosting disputes etc. None of this can ever affect me, because I have every page I ever designed backed up on my hard drive, much of the older stuff on CD's. But all of my current websites are mirrored perfectly on my computer. If one of my hosts suddenly goes out of business or whatever, I am able to simply upload my site or sites to another server, switch the DNS codes and in a day or three I'm back in the game 100%.

Stop deleting files once you upload. Don't argue, don't think you know better, just listen to me. I know.

Thank you. Or rather, you should thank me.
