If you are like me, you realize that you should backup your data/files from you PC at least weekly so that if you system crashes you can recover your work up to a very recent point.  But, I am sure most of of you struggle with finding the time to do this just like I do.  Well, Seagate has announced a new personal storage/backup unit called replica. - http://www.seagate.com/replica/ .  It is supposed to be automatic and easy to use.  I did a quick review of this and it look interesting and promising so please check it out.  But in the mean time, please find a way to backup your data on a frequent basis so that you have your bases covered.  If you need any assistance with this, please send me an email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

In collaboration with the Office of Information Technology and the College of Informatics, NKU has submitted its first mobile application for students, faculty and staff.  It has been submitted to the Apple Application store and we are awaiting approval for this free application.  Once approved, NKU will be doing some PR around this initiative.  NKU is one of only a handful of universities that have released applications for mobile devices.
