Thrilling Web Adventures of a Retired Tech Guru

About

Christina Sng retired after a long and illustrious career as a web developer, information architect, site producer, and usability consultant. Retirement, however, is boring! Join her here on her continuing adventures on the web.

With every move, invariably one thinks of (or rather remembers to) backing up one’s blog. I have been tardy in this respect but now I set my mind to backing up all the years of blogging to my rather trusty Lenovo v100 laptop.

Unfortunately, HTTrack, which I’d used successfully before, does not like Vista. It starts collecting data, then pouts and stops the program, claiming it has finishing the mirroring. As if.

So I have no choice but to uninstall the dang thing and look for another solution to backup my blogs. I have downloaded 4 programs and will run them shortly to test them.

Despite an absence of marketed blog backup programs, offline browsers do the same job quickly and efficiently. It’s way better than copy and pasting each entry to back them up.
