Also remember that syncing isn't backup, especially for important files. A newer version of a file will always overwrite an older one, so if you're using something that creates empty files in an Ubuntu One folder on one machine, it will overwrite an existing file. I use Beersmith in exactly this way, and if it's open in two locations the database will fail to update. s/ -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood "TBA are particularly glib"
