			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.backupmyblog.com"><img style="float: left" src='http://cache0.techcrunch.com/wp-content/backupmybloglogo.gif'class="shot" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.backupmyblog.com">BackupMyBlog</a> is a new service (in public beta) that will automatically back up blogs daily (I love the heavy use of green in the design). This is a much needed tool. Wordpress, which is what we use for all of the TechCrunch blogs, has this feature built in, but inexplicably doesn&#8217;t backup images &#8211; so we do backups manually instead (and often forget for a day). </p>
<p>BackupMyBlog backups are fully redundant on two separate servers in two locations, so its extremely unlikely you&#8217;ll lose your main blog as well as both backups. However, the service has a 10 mb limit &#8211; something I don&#8217;t like &#8211; and older post backups are deleted as that limit is reached. Hopefully they&#8217;ll have options for more storage once the service is out of beta. <a href="http://www.solutionwatch.com/391/backupmyblog-auto-remote-backups-for-blogs/">Brian Benzinger</a> has done a full test of the service and likes most aspects of it.</p>
<p>Most hosted blogs won&#8217;t be able to use the product &#8211; you must be able to add a PHP script on your blog server. If you are hosting your blog yourself, though, you should be using this or otherwise backing up your data.</p>
<p>The product is free during its beta period. No word on pricing after that.</p>
<p>This is the kind of thing I&#8217;d expect Feedburner to be doing.</p>
