    Rooted Users: I hereby declare Friday 7/1/2011 "Back up yer stuff!" day.

    I don't know about yinz, but I often forget to perform backups regularly. This was all too evident when I jacked my XOOM up today and had to restore to a backup some 3 weeks ago :/

    So that this holiday weekend you too do not have to experience that awful sinking feeling of "umm, when DID I do my last backup??" I am officially declaring Friday 7/1/2011 "Back up yer stuff!" day. Maybe we should make every Friday "Back up yer stuff!" day. A weekly community service announcement of sorts lol!

    Back up yer stuff!!!

    Cheers!

    I'll gladly second that motion.

    I back up every time I'm about t do something out of the ordinary/have a possibility of screwing it up, but I like the idea of weekly backups! And to also go back to delete the last weeks back up(?) And rename it so you know its a good one! (ROM version, etc)

    I know I'll be participating tomorrow.
