We have all heard it a thousand times โbe prepared for The Big Oneโ. And โThe Big Oneโ varies from area to area. It is an earthquake, a fire, a tornado, a flood or even a home robbery. We hear about it. We talk about it. And we think about it โฆbut when it comes down to it, just how prepared are you?
But, sitting in front of your computer and scanning these photos one by one can a painfully slow process, even taking months or years to complete. It just isnโt realistic. Fortunately there are services like ScanMyPhotos.com which make backing up your hard copy photos easy and affordable with their โspeed-scanโ process.
September is
National Preparedness Month, which is a perfect reminder to us all to put that planning into action. While we might have a few extra canned goods stored, or a copy of our insurance policies in a safe, but what about your photos? One of the most over-looked areas of preventive preservation is backing up our hard-copy photos. When disaster strikes, it is the
irreplaceable memories that affect the victims the most. Your wedding album, boxes of photos your children and photos of relatives no longer living are all examples of precious items that need to be cared for responsibly.
