Backupify: Online Account Backup

[RadioActive]

Do you use any of the following online Services? Gmail, Twitter, Google Docs, Flickr, Facebook, Basecamp, Wordpress, Del.icio.us, Photobucket, Blogger, FriendFeed. Have you ever considered the need to back up the information stored there in case you ever lose access?

Backupify is a very different service from other online backup services you might be familiar with like Dropbox, Mosy, or Carbonite. These other services are designed to backup things on your computer, while Backupify is designed to backup your content that is already on the internet. It will automatically log in to your Facebook or Flickr account etc., backup any new content it finds and log back out. You don't even have to have your computer turned on. This will protect you from loss if a service ever suddenly becomes unavailable, your account is compromised, or data is unwittingly lost or corrupted.

Backupify is currently offering free unlimited accounts to anyone who signs up before January 31st. I confirmed that these free accounts will remain free forever even after their new pricing scheme goes into effect.

Co-founder of Backupify)']I would like to make 2 quick points about Backupify. First, for most services we don't store your password. Most of the services we backup use Oauth or something similar, so we send you to their servers for authentication, they pass us a unique token that represents you and our service, and we never have to store your password. There are some exceptions, like Gmail and Basecamp, but for most services, we don't ever see your password.

Secondly, Backupify allows you to download all your data from Backupify to your PC. Right now it is a bit tedious, as you have to do it service by service, but we are working to provide easy zip files with everything.

Thanks.
