    Today I had a presentation to give in class and for my extreme delight I get server is too busy when I try to log in to the account I uploaded the presentation too!? But as life taught me never take anything for granted!! I had a copy stored on my Iphone, my jail-broken iphone that is, so with a few terminal commands I got the file and gave the presentation. Next time, I will just bring my usb.

      By the time I graduated, I always had 3 backups of everything. Particularly if it was going to be presented.

        Also a DVD copy, It's getting better now a days but still, It will never rely on a USB drive or a Memory Card, specially if your Grade/Degree is depended on it. :)

          Don't forget some print outs. Lesson be learned that Technology fails. Depending on the size of the group being presented too having a small set of print outs can go a long way. If the group is very large then do a printout of 6 pages to one. Atleast they get the visual diagrams (can't make out text though). And then of course have a couple full print outs. The people that matter get those (i.e. judges, bosses etc.). Always Always assume technology will fail. Cause it does.

          Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

            True, It's better than cursing your own luck. :)
