When is World Backup Day?

Friday March 31st

As we've become more reliant on technology, we've been reminded to shield our valuable digital records as we've become more dependent on technology.

World Backup Day - March 31

There's always that one photo, video, or memory that you took the time to save, but for some reason, it isn't yours anymore... If it was a lost or broken phone, a defective hard drive, or some other technological blunder, it's likely that keeping all your information together would be impossible.

Fortunately, the day before April Fools is World Backup Day, which saves us from being the punchline of a joke made by our own devices. We will finally say, "I'll do it tomorrow," and make sure all our precious files have a safe location.

Try not to think of it as a pain, rather than a headache. Remember when you promised to back up all the photos and videos from your last trip? Now's the time, buddy.

We live in a world where computers are increasingly dependent on computers to support our lives every day. Although it's impossible to imagine a future in which our precious files aren't as accessible as they are today, it's not our job to take digital memories for granted. Now put your foot down, take a stand, and back the thing up!
