One-Button Data Backup in a Tiny Package - New York Times

I recently upgraded my laptop's OS, and the hardest part by far was backing up the hard drive's files, both work and personal. After clogging up my personal folder on the network drive here at work, i finally gave up and just ran the upgrade.

Thankfully nothing was lost and all I have to do now is rebuild most of my preferences. Still, for something so simple and important as backing up data, it's about time someone came up with a tool that does this quickly.
