I think I'm going to have to cloud it somewhere.Actually I did once on my old computer, which was stolen last year. Google chrome saves your stuff, so its just a matter of logging in. But yesterday when I did that, my bookmark file was gone!
I thought I was saved, because my tablet still had my bookmarks. But when it synched to Google....poof! It also killed my bookmarks again! Dammit
Reading up on this, its a common occurrence!
So now I must give you guys a fair warning, back up your bookmarks, before its too late!

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Do you still have a history of recently visited sites? If so, pull that up and go visit and re-bookmark. Might save some of them that way.flojocabron wrote:I just realized that my computer on google chrome just erased all my bookmarks!

I never realized how much Regular Show gets past the censors. Not nearly as much as Ren and Stimpy or something along that line, but quite a bit really.

Anyone know where I can get my grubby hands on a copy of Windows 7 with a student discount? I can only find Windows 8.

Holy crap! This is why I hate that syncing aspect of the cloud saves. I suspect Google Chrome does just that with the Bookmarks and any of your settings. The thought is any PC you log into will have all your current settings including bookmarks. The bad is probably exactly what happened with the backup Tablet PC.flojocabron wrote:I dont have a backup!RCBH928 wrote:Don't you have some sort of cloud backup? or hard disk backup?

Hobie has a great idea for at least more recent visited sites saved in the History section. As you re bookmark them one at a time put a duplicate in the FireFox or what ever other browser that saves your bookmarks without that syncing crap.
Lately in Gamestop I hear in the video ads something about storing your game saves thru the cloud. Really?!! Why would anyone want to risk that?
