Earlier this year, as I was listening to a presentation by an eleven-year-old community volunteer and blogger named Laura Stockman about the service projects she carries out in her hometown outside Buffalo, New York, an audience member asked where she got her ideas for her good work.

I doubt anyone in the room could have guessed that answer. But if you look at the Clustrmap on Laura's blog, Twenty Five Days to Make a Difference, you'll see that Stockman's readers -- each represented by a little red dot -- come from all over the world.

Backup Utilities: Five Best Windows Backup Tools. @Christopher: Syncplicity offers all the key features under one roof - backup, sync, versioning and autoarchiving. But their pricing is out of what with most of the other offerings.

I have reviewed features and tested Sugarsync, Syncplicity, Crashplan, Dropbox, ElephantDrive, Jungledisk, Humyo, Carbonite, Mozy, LiveDrive, Foldershare and the now dead MediaMax. A couple of them have fatal flaws (like Mozy's inability to do a practical large scale restore). But many of them have or are planning to release feature sets identical to Syncplicity, and are already cross platform. Many are also using S3 as a primary or partial backbone. And I wouldn't yet count out the long delayed GDrive or LiveDrive. In this context, what kind of premium can Syncplicity command?

I imagine that Syncplicity may be worried about the number of high volume customers showing up in their beta.
