Thanks for the heads up, kkart.
However, contrary to what A Drive says, online services like this are particularly UNsuitable for backups! Because what if A Drive goes belly up tomorrow? You wouldn't be able to get to your own backups anymore!

So it can be convenient for a multitude of applications, but NOT for backups!

Another limitation is that uploads are limited to 2GB per...

Have fun!

It isn't free, but I am extremely happy using Carbonite. Their software runs in the background, and now does incremental updates...has saved my butt a few times already.

Online Backup: Easy, Completely Automatic. Secure. Carbonite.

MyPhotoAlbum: Online Photo Album - MyPhotoAlbum.com offers free unlimited storage of photos and videos, as well as various ways to share with others. When you sign up, you automatically earn 20 free 4X6" (or 4XD) prints. Each time you make a purchase or get friends to join, you earn points which can be redeemed for more free prints.

If anybody here would be willing to share your email address with me, I can send you an invitation to register, and if you do so using the special link you receive, I'll get 500 points.

There's an option to pay ($20 per year) for extra album customizations and to drop the advertising banners from your albums. You can hotlink to photos in your albums and also sell your photos. Another bonus is that club members get a lower price per print when you order from them. I've only ordered the 4X6 and 4XD sizes from them, but those prints were better than some places I've purchased from.
