Temp storage?

[snaw]

Oops,

Packed up my home PC yesterday and it's now in a container without copying all my work stuff from current job (I always take a copy of what I've done with me).

Any suggestions on temp on line storage (A month or so), for free?

How much space do you need?
www.getdropbox.com is free up to 2gb and is very very convenient

Email it to a gmail account. No idea what their current capacity is, but probably enough, plus you can search it as well if need be.

Drop box allows you to install a little application which automatically synchs a folder (of your choice) with their online storage.
Very handy when you use multiple PC's

You've copied all your stuff from work, for what purpose?

To add value as a contractor.

I always do it too. I have a small library of scripts which help on a day-to-day basis.
I don't recycle code written for a specific client implementation but having the code on hand to refer to is a lot simpler than trying to keep accurate notes on things

Designs I've done, proposals I've written, configs I've worked on and know work etc.

tulip you forget after a year or so, but may have to dig up again at some future date. Did a full QoS design for a company a few years back, and used it twice since then. 5 pages of very good stuff, makes it look you've been putting the hard yards in and all I have to do is change the names and tweak it to reflect the sites covered ...

I have a selection of policy and procedure documents that I do exactly the same thing with. No point re-inventing the wheel every time when every client wants more or less the same thing anyway.

An <insert standards name here> compliant policy or process to do <x>.

The other day, I had to dig out a bid proposal that I wrote about 7 years ago. I keep as much as I can remember to take with me
