As I said a couple of post before, amazon is great, and now they have lowered their prices dramatically, this will drive down my backup costs significantly.

In my last post about Amazon S3 I wrote about automating backups, here are some backup solutions that will make your life easier:
- s3sync.rb (A cool script written in Ruby).
- S3 Backup (Windows client).
- duplicity (A not so mature Python script).
- Brackup (A Perl script written by Brad Fitzpatrick).
- Jungle Disk (Windows, Linux, Mac client and also a local WebDAV server).
