I was writing an extended post when that outage began, sitting in a hotel room, trying to finish the post in a hurry so I could rejoin the love of my life. Of course I ended up sitting around until I could post it, possibly an hour later. Fortunately, creating a post in my funky hand-coded blog involves saving a local file before posting it.
As for backing up as I write, e.g., comments, I frequently do Select-All | Copy as a kind of crude backup after each paragraph and again just before I submit. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than losing everything… which I nonetheless do all too frequently.
