Out of the Woods

Hmm. This whole Windows Live thing looks promising. I last wrote about how much I like Windows Live Writer. I now find a news item that SkyDrive provides 5 GB of free on-line storage. I've been looking into on-line backup storage for a while now, and I've not found any free ones that I like. SkyDrive looks promising, but in my quick look at it, I don't see any nice synchronization utility that would make regular backups happen automatically in the background. I did find a few forum posts saying that kind of functionality would be nice to have. It looks like Microsoft is actively working on SkyDrive, and it's in its infancy, so we may see something yet. Here's hoping....
