Thanks Tracy! I've tried S3Fox, and that's pretty good for piecemeal
backups. I'll  have to play around with the S3 API to see about mirroring
various folders to buckets. Bucket Explorer looks friendly enough for my
wife and kids to use, but I may give them S3Fox to try out. The kids will
master just about anything on the computer.

So far, I really like it. I've been storing stuff in my gmail account, but
don't really want to do it that way.
