Its photo dedicated desktop software takes care of the upload of the pictures and, if needed, the restoration of the files. Nothing to care about.

Then on occasion, I sync to an external HD and take that to work for safe keeping. If my house burns down, I'll have bigger problems than my photos :) I don't know about the rest of you, but backing up 6+MB images to online services can get quite time consuming... Plus there is that privacy issue. I have a local array of 750gb HD’s on the desktop, that get backed up to a 2TB(Raid 5) NAS on my network every night.

Since I always have it with me, it's tough to lose. My wife got me a 2GB USB wristwatch, so I back up all my smaller, important files on it. Since I always have it with me, it’s tough to lose.

In those 24 hours, I will have made two local backups, and one local backup (all automatic). I'm using Super Duper, Time Machine, and Amazon S3 (using JungleDisk).
