Carrie Bradshaw learned the hard way

Posted by Caitlin on July 15th, 2009

I was flipping through the channels the other night when I came across an old episode of Sex and the City. It happened to be "My Motherboard, Myself," from season four, in which Carrie's laptop crashes. Aiden, Miranda, and the Tekserve technician all ask, "When was the last time you backed up?"  Carrie responds, "Um, I don't do that." She calls Miranda and whines, "No one talks about backing up. You've never used that expression with me before, ever, but apparently, everybody's secretly running home at night and backing up their work."

So I was sitting on the couch, watching this scene, thinking that Carrie is such an idiot. And then it occurred to me that, although I am well aware of the importance of backing up, I have not been backing up my own work! I am a way bigger idiot than Carrie! So, naturally, I hurried to the online backup service reviews at NextAdvisor.com and quickly remedied the situation. Because feeling dumber than Carrie Bradshaw is very unpleasant!
