Backups are just a browser away

I tried Amazon's S3 service last year to get some measure of off-site backup for my documents, movies and photos, but I couldn't find an FTP/DAV app that worked quite right. Jungle Disk was clunky and Interarchy just didn't work right, and so I gave up.

Then I found the S3 Firefox extension. Easy to use and install, it can access your S3 files from anywhere there's a machine with Firefox and a net connection.

Wow.

If you need cheap off-site backup, give S3 and S3Fox a try.
