Backup Tutorial - How to backup your Facebook, Google, Linkedin accounts, email, bookmarks, phone contacts, and more

Hi Everyone!

Many people think of backups after something bad happens to their computer, tablet, cell phone or other digital device.
All it takes is 5-10 minutes a week and you can save yourself big headaches if something unexpected happens to your digital world.

When was the last time you backed up your Facebook, Google and Linkedin accounts? Many people do not even know you can back them up.

Do you have a copy of the contact / phone list in your cell phone? You have loads of photos that you took on your last vacation.
Did you copy them on to your computer or disk-on-key? What would happen if you lose your cell phone today?

On your old computer's hard disk there are anniversary photos that have never been backed up and are irreplaceable.
Why wait till it is too late?

This week, I created a backup tutorial that will help you backup your valuable data. The initial tutorial covers 8 topics and
I may add more in the near future.

The tutorial address is:
