Copying one or two sentences is generally fine, as long as you give attribution back to the original author. However, anything beyond that constitutes copyright infringement, regardless of whether you attribute it back to the original author.Obi-Wanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15191019726892983113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652457072960239076.post-11917893289463347562014-04-06T23:08:34.753-05:002014-04-06T23:08:34.753-05:00Do you mind if I quote a few of your posts as long...Do you mind if I quote a few of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to <br />your weblog?

It also amazes me how small companies, not just photographers, take this so lightly.<br />I have run into many individuals who are pleased as punch how organized they are always backing up to a second drive, that is either inside the computer(!) or sits next to it, permanently.<br />Something I haven't seen mentioned much in any of this is the importance of having EVERYTHING that is connected to the main computer on a surge protector. I was developing on-site for a company and had set their system up completely on good surge protectors, etc. Several months after I had finished I get a call that their machine was dead. I went in and found someone had moved the console (ok...I'm old) to another area and plugged it in to the wall. I opened up the box and it was real evident where the surge came in. I expect a hurriedly connected USB, FireWire device, or monitor would cause the same thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652457072960239076.post-49513052265949479992012-06-19T13:24:04.503-05:002012-06-19T13:24:04.503-05:00Nearly a year after originally posting this articl...Nearly a year after originally posting this article, I ran across some videos produced by big name editorial photographer/videographer Chase Jarvis outlining how he handles workflow and backups. While the videos are a couple years old now, Chase says they're still accurate. It's nice to see that somebody like him has essentially the same backup philosophy that I advocate above.<br /><br />The first video is only 10 minutes long. The second one is 90 minutes.<br /><br /><a href="http://blog.ChaseJarvis.com/blog/2010/06/workflow-and-backup-for-photo-video/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.ChaseJarvis.com/blog/2010/06/workflow-and-backup-for-photo-video/</a><br /><br /><a href="http://blog.ChaseJarvis.com/blog/2010/10/photo-workflow-backup-chasejarvi/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.ChaseJarvis.com/blog/2010/10/photo-workflow-backup-chasejarvi/</a>Obi-Wanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15191019726892983113noreply@blogger.com
