What a great idea Eugene! And people tease me about being organized!

One of the things I enjoy  about reading emails on this list and others 
related list I subscribed to is  the fact that I am always learning something 
new. 
And I know we have all heard  about backing up our data.  But I  do not 
believe I have heard anyone suggest backing up web sites that are  important to 
you. 
Since I have four computers,  two for home use and two for travel including 
researching I am a firm believer  in the use of portable hard drives.   I 
have six of them.  Two in  a safe deposit box at all times.   And I rotate 
them at least once a month. 
So If I find a web site on  this computer that I want to revisit I save it 
here and then part of my  monthly or pre travel check list it to back 
everything up on a least two  portable hard drives and secure one hard drive and 
take another one with me  when I travel. 
Below are the steps I take  to access the folder containing the web sites 
important to me.  I then copy and paste the complete  contents of this folder 
to a new folder on my portable hard  drive. 
I hope this  helps.
