Aren't you using github? How did you manage to suffer a large data loss?

It would probably help. In fact, it would most definitely help.

I'll keep the usage of github in mind. Usually my stuff doesn't go there until after it's all finished up, but eh, that's not exactly the purpose of git repositories anyhow.

I hardly ever do any kind of work without source control! It's so useful, especially the file history stuff, but continual backup is a great side-effect.

If you're looking for free private source control, I recommend: assembla.com

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm a good fan of GitLab though, with the only downside being that it's very linux-based.
