backup your lj!
Apr. 8th, 2009 06:20 amDear friendslist,
If you haven't already, do backup your LJ!
Well, in truth, I only read that FAQ link, skipped it, & searched for other methods instead *lol*
I stumbled upon very helpful tutorials and found a couple of nifty tools for backing up LJ.
The great tutorials:
1. Backing up your LJ: a guide for Windows users (thank you![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
brown_betty)
2. How to Back-Up Your LJ (thank youliz_marcs)
The best backup tools:
1. ljArchive (see![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
ljarchive for updates)
2. LJ Backup (seeljbackup_dev for updates)
3. LJ-Sec (seeljsec for updates)
4. LJ Migrate (check out the tutorial)
I only use the first three, because the 4th one uses Python and I'm too lazy to learn it :P
From the three above, my favorite is ljArchive. It lets you archive communities as well (provided you have posting access). How nifty! Oh, and let's not forget the sync ability! I just love it! ♥♥♥
This whole backup awareness all started because of the oh so many computer mishaps in the last two months, and I've become very aware of backing up my online & offline data as a result.
