But not for much longer. There was a link to Jungle Disk in the comments (#16), and I realized that Amazon S3 is a really good and extremely cheap way for me to store my data. 15 cents a gigabyte per month is hard to beat. :) With six or seven gigs of pictures and 12 or so gigs of music, plus another gig or two of data, that’s only 21 gigs at 15 cents a month = $3.15 a month. Whoa. That’s cheap. I want to cry for joy. :)

So I’ve installed Jungle Disk and started copying stuff over. It’s working pretty well so far. The only thing I’m wondering about is the buckets — do you have to change the configuration every time you want to switch buckets? Because that’s annoying. I do like Jungle Disk’s integration with the OS X Finder, though. Now to see if I can find a web app that lets me get to my data from any computer, without having to install something like Jungle Disk…

Speaking of backups, I really ought to move my website development files into Subversion. (It would be so nice if Bluehost offered it…)

Granted, that means I won’t be able to access it from other computers, but for now that’s not really a problem because this is the only computer I do development on. (Well, other than my Windows box at work, but its importance is quickly fading to nothingness now that I have a Mac. :))

So, I’m in the middle of building Subversion on Tiger. It’s a piece of cake — Dan Benjamin’s articles on Hivelogic are really good and easy to follow.

Later on I’ll see how TextMate’s Subversion integration is.
