Have ever spent hours  on a story that suddenly disintegrates mysteriously into the Abyss?  I’ll share a few ways to reduce that possibility right now.
Text version of this story at this link.
Excerpt:
“The  biggest mistake any hardware user can make is to ignore backing up  their data. Software can be reinstalled; data lost is irreplaceable. We  are in a digital age and a lot of our data is stored digitally — bank  records, photos, letters, music. A recent NCSA/Symantec study showed  that over 68% of Americans store more than 25% of their photos  digitally, for example. There are any number of ways data can be lost.  Accidental deletion is common. Device failure happens. Natural events,  such as electrical or wind storms, fires, or floods can eradicate data.  Cyber events such as viruses, spyware or other cyber attacks can remove  data, as well.” — SafetyWeb
My Thumb or Pinky Finger and the Mouse: A Conspiracy
In  the business world, the term shrinkage refers to all the ways  productivity and assets can be lost, stolen, or spoiled causing losses  in time, money, and bottom line profits.
Twice  this week I have labored, typed and toiled for hours only to have my  pinky finger hit some key or series of keys, on my laptop causing the  work to vanish. It literally just happened again, this time I had taken a  new action and only lost half the story.
This  has to be stopped. It hasn’t happened to me at home, only remotely on  my laptop. I’ve tried to recreate the event for discovery into what is  occurring, but to no avail. My suspicion is, there is a culprit, the function key marked FN. This key does not appear in the same spot on my desktop.
