Paperback: backup your data to paper December 3, 2007

Posted by Al in : bizarre,computers , trackback

Here’s a weird, or clever, idea for backing up your data: it prints your data onto whatever paper your printer is capable of handling, and you can then restore it by scanning these sheets of paper. Strange? Yes. Unwieldy? Yes. Clever, innovative and possibly useful? Yes as well. I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether you would ever use such a system for backing up your data, but you have to admit it’s different.
