Try Tonido Backup. http://www.tonido.com/app_backup_home.html.

Works on Windows, Mac and Linux. It is free too.

Try one of those plug computers like http://www.tonidoplug.com. It runs ubuntu though.

Run Tonido in your desktop. That will solve this issue.

nice

you don't need to go there. You can get the IP address from your router.All the applications in the app store is already pre-installed in plug. So you don't need to pay anything more than $99

Yeah that includes the hard drive. Once you have a 24/7 dlna/upnp server u can play not only from TV and other computers as well. It is not a game changing device but there is a value in it. i rest my case.

it is just an alternative to home servers and consumes approx 5 watts. There are other uses for TonidoPlug - not limited to media streaming

You can have low-power media server running 24/7 for a fraction of electricity costs that your laptop consumes. I guess that is the point

http://www.codelathe.com/blog/index.php/2009/08/25/announcin.... Check out Tonido OpenID. It is a truly a decentralized, private OpenID provider.

It comes with 512 MB RAM. Performance should be better than shared hosting

This video is by Chris Pirillo. A neutral, 3rd party reviewer - passionate about technology (not associated with Tonido). We thought after seeing this video we couldn't explain Tonido better than Chris. Thats why we posted the video.

For starters,

Tonido workspace is a very powerful PIM and collaborative app that employs unique horizontal information schema. Honestly, we believe it is better or equal to the best collob apps available out there both in cloud and desktop. It will also allow you to sync your files across computers: work or home.

Tonido webshare allows you to share files easily from your computer. You don't need to pay any subscription costs for a cloud storage. Yes there are other free apps available. But not in a one single package as Tonido.

If you have lot of high resolution photos, Tonido photos is a perfect fit. It uses p2p overlay to transfer photos. you don't need to wait for lengthy uploads.

Tonido jukebox allows you to listen to your music collection from any device with a browser. So you can have a single music server that streams music to multiple devices.

Tonido Torrent is a web based bit torrent client - If you want to start and stop torrents remotely - good option.

Tonido thots is a simple journal to capture your thoughts - like your personal wordpress.

TonidoPlug runs on 1/10 of your desktop or laptop power. That saves electricity costs.

There are number of other apps are also in pipeline: screenshare, openid, backup-sync, backpack clone.

In short, it really offers benefits other than not being cloud. It is quite possible one might not need any of these apps or the features that Tonido provides.It is not perfect. There are rough edges. We will correct it as we iterate.

As we release more apps and iterate the best ones we have, we think the users will see the obvious benefits in using Tonido.

Tom, Ultimately the power and usability of applications win. Why don't you give it a try. promise you it will be worth your time. The underpinning of Tonido is control of data. Even we have plans to offer Tonido on your own VPS.We just provide an alternative to cloud . Thats it. we don't hate or fear cloud services

Really getting tired of Apple man... Compared to AAPL MSFT seems benevolent

guys amazing job. i really like it. they are always naysayers. same people mocked at Tonido before opera unite come into the picture. Internet is big place. You will get your share.

good idea. spam filter for hashtags

Hi Caffeine,

I have used your byline in Tonido Site. Thanks a lot

yes we can port it easily

we thought about that. do you think there will be a market for it? will you pay 20$ per month for a virtual private instance to have tonido

the p2p functionality is used in sharing photos and workspaces (similar to backpack app). P2P is not used for jukebox (more like ur own personal music station).

i think your intuition is spot on. thanks

if you are interested please sign up in the developer mailing list. we will send the notification.

freemium. but we need to get traction first. plan to sell the domain server for enterprises and create new business apps for SOHO segment.

plan to sell premium applications. differentiate business and personal apps.

You can access the apps from anywhere. It has a p2p built in capability that allows you to sync your workspace, files and photos

actually tonido is also a platform. it comes with a set of applications currently. can build apps on top of it. thats why we are not sure what message is appropriate (platform or functionality or apps)

should the key message target functionality or underlying philosophy of the product?

the platform is open source

thanks. good suggestion
