Thanks eschwartz. It's getting a little complicated though in that there seems to be so many choices.

I like your redundant theory: add Drobox and SpiderOak. But then would I just be putting the Copy folder into Dropbox's and SpiderOak's versions of the Copy folder? (Once again, I'm having a hard time getting my head around this stuff).

And Terisa's method (copy.com and rsync) sounds simple but rysnc seemed pretty daunting.

And a friend is suggesting I use CrashPlan.

It's all good stuff. But at times I wonder if I'm overcomplicating stuff.

Like with Copy.com. I've got my data in the Copy cloud. Okay, the Copy cloud evaporates. Fine I've still got the Copy folder in both computers, right?

Or one computer crashes AND the Copy cloud evaporates. I've still got the Copy folder in the other computer, right?

So, what the hell, what are the odds of the Copy cloud and BOTH computers crashing?
