backing up scripts

Bob Z

Does anyone here upload their stories and/or scripts online for safekeeping? if so what service do you use?

I know a lot of people use dropbox. I personally tend to use Catch, which is a mobile phone ap, so I can do quick edits when I'm in a queue for the bus.

A few of us have our own website which we use for critiquing and feedback, and most of what I write gets uploaded to that as well. It's a private site, so the work is secure.

I save a lot of my stuff on my laptop and on an external hard drive. I always email finished work to one or two specific people to read over for me so they also then live in my email account.

I use Dropbox occasionally - not as much as I thought I would.

Then I use Wordpress, like Eileen said, as a kind of website. Usually post work links up here for feedback and lock the post after a specific length of time.

Not sure if that third way is the best way of doing it but has worked for me so far.

I use Google docs for anything under 1MB and mail myself everything else and keep a copy on two PCs and a USB key.

Everyone keeps reccomending DropBox. Is it really that good? Never looked at it; just use Google Docs, though I can't edit that on my phone which is a PITA.
