Does Google Docs back files up online? If so, how safe are they and how reliable or permanent? I'll look it up. Have been concerned about this for using web-based email as well. Also whether Google search engine will index any of this so someone can bring it up in a search. Thinking here of Gmail.

Subject: Re: [CGUYS] Why not build back up function into the computer?? (was back up question: what to back up and what doesn't need backing up?)


Because it's way too much trouble.

And in the Real World, it just wouldn't work. People that want to back
up, will. I see clients all the time that are only interested in
saving their digital photos. They learn how to burn DVDs and they're
done. They use webmail so they have little if anything else to
actually back up.

Use Google Docs (or similar) and you too won't even have to back up
your important documents.

why isn't backing up - the hardware and the software - a built in function
of the computer itself?
