Backing up files in Windows with a .bat file
I was asked to write a batch file or script to backup some files in one of the servers. Here I attached an image of the batch file. It used xcopy and /I if the destination does’t exist and there is more than one file to copy assume that is a folder, /E Copy directories and and subdirectories, including empty ones. You set up the scheduler to run this batch one a day and voila! I hope this can help someone out there.
Rework - by the 37 signals’ guys
I was reading rework a few weeks ago, I just got the time to finish it today morning. Interesting stuff, if you have the time and interest in Biz topics Rework is a fresh and controversial alternative.
I’m not a biz guy myself, but after work in freelance projects for a while sometimes there is a necessity of understand topics that are covered in this book. It is fun to see how a technical team undergoes in this harsh field for a lot firms and does it so gracefully.
