My Hero...this week.

"Noel Jackson":http://noeljackson.com/ is my hero for this week. Maybe next week, if someone doesn't come up strong(er). In reponse to "my problems with this blog(problems, hell. A Raging Pain In The Ass. ARPITA)":http://www.simiandesign.com/blog-fu/2003/03/001457.cfm , he left some brilliant comments that I was brainless to doing. Noel stated: "If you are using unix, just run this as a cron job... curl -d username=yourusername -d password=yourpassword -d blog_id=3 -d __mode=export "http://noeljackson.com/cgi-bin/mt.cgi" -o ~/Sites/Backups/noeljackson.com/Databases/mtbackup.cgi " So, "Noel":http://noeljackson.com/, you're my hero, until March 26th. At which point I'll have to re-evaluate things. Yea Noel!

Oh boy, that's funny! I'm glad that helps you out. *smiles*

One thing that my host offers is a daily gzipped mysql dump which is also cool, I have that on a cron job too, since the mt.cgi backup doesn't save your preferences like a mysql dump would, but at least it offers some sort of backup.

Cheers.
