If you are like millions of other people across the planet, you use WhatsApp to send very important pictures of your cat or your latest craft project to select friends and family members. But the pictures are sent in a highly compressed format, so they aren’t really usable outside the app. more

Just imagine losing or breaking your smartphone or laptop. Most of us have years of photos and important documents on our devices, and if you haven’t backed up your files, they’ll all be gone with the wind – and little hope of recovery. Luckily, it’s not hard to back up data, which is what World Backup Day on March 31 is all about! more

Are you thinking of digitizing old photos? Creating a digital copy of your precious memories is a great idea – it ensures you’ll always have a backup if the originals should be damaged or lost.
