Backup Your Outlook! using "Personal Folders Backup" a FREE Addin from Microsoft

Backup Outlook PST Files Regularly with Personal Folders Backup

DOWNLOAD MS Install, pfback.exe HERE

The Personal Folders file (.pst) of Microsoft Outlook is one of the most important files on your computer that stores offline copies of all your email messages, calendar appointments, contacts, tasks and other Outlook items. [PST = Personal Storage Table]

Whether you download emails from Gmail Inbox to Outlook or sync Google Calendar with Outlook Calendar, everything gets saved in a PST file on your hard drive. It is therefore extremely important that you regularly backup your Outlook PST files so as not to lose any data in the event of a computer crash.

Though you can create a backup copy of your Outlook .pst files using the Import and Export wizard in Outlook, that’s slightly cumbersome and puts some pressure on your memory since it’s for you to remember the date when you have run the same backup process again.

To save you from this backup stress, Microsoft has a free Outlook add-in called Personal Folders Backup that works with all versions of Outlook and weighs just 160 kb.

This tool can backup all your PST files in a single click and will automatically remind you to perform a backup after ‘x’ number of days. The same tools can also be used to restore Outlook data from previous backups.

The Personal Folders Backup tool has been available since long but the new version that’s released today includes support for Outlook 2007.

My NEW Reality TV Show just picked up!

THE SHOW TITLE:
So you think you can fish with 2 gay singers and an over weight, former model, American millionaire, single mother of 8 on a dangerous Alaskan island while getting a makeover from bikers in a remodeled restaurant full of military cops, criminals and zany inventors?

THE HOSTS:
To determine who will host and co-host the show, a tag-team Tri-athalon match between Hulk Hogan/Howie Mandel and Jesse Ventura/Ryan Seacrest will take place on the first exciting episode. The potential hosts will compete in wrestling, cooking, and child rearing.

THE JUDGES:
There will be at least one pompous English judge, a drunken former "questionable" star as well as several unknown bad song writers and some guy that eats live fish he catches with his bear hands (Yes! surgically installed Bear Paws as hands!).

THE THEME SONG:
So far, any song that sounds like that one Fray song that sounds like every other Fray song is being considered for the theme song.

NOTES:
Planning and Casting will begin soon.

Any other suggestions?

Exchange or Transfer Large Files

Hey guys,
To FTP or Not to FTP?

Not sure if you are familiar with "yousendit" or other online web apps that let you send large files, but i stumbled upon a nice looking site that may turn out to be pretty cool. I Just started using it myself..but it's worth a look.





http://www.transferbigfiles.com/ is a great, easy and FREE website that you can use to send any files too large for email. You can also tell someone to go there if they need to get files to you. It's a snap!

Best of all,
No registration required. No nags. No spam etc.
