Re: [clug] Topic for Feb meeting

Ah. That just shows how much I know about this. Maybe it's not a cloud but I want to automatically backup the data on my different machines using wifi. If I rely on backup via USB then invariably it doesn't get done. 

It would also be nice but not necessary to view my photos etcetera using wifi and my smart set top box. 

I'll peruse those links later this week. 

Thanks. 

John.
