New Benefit for ABA Members
ABA members can now receive special discounts on secure online backup by Mozy.
Mozy is a simple and safe way to back up all the important files and documents on your computer. A copy of your data is stored in a secure, remote location for safekeeping, so that in the event of disaster your data is still retrievable. Backups can be configured to run automatically without your personal attention.
Use MozyPro to secure your documents at the office. MozyHome will safeguard the music, videos and family photos on your personal computer.
Discounts are available to ABA members for both the MozyHome and MozyPro solutions. To take advantage of these discounts, please visit www.mozy.com/aba or call 1.877.MozyPro and mention that you are a member of the ABA.
SOLO Goes Electronic
SOLO, the Division’s diminutive eight–page newsletter, will soon see a change in format. It will be online–only starting with the fall 2008 issue. GPSolo Division members will receive notice of each issue by e–mail with a link to the online site. The look of the newsletter will also change; the online format will feature an easy’access list of articles and authors, as well as a downloadable pdf and other “quick click” links to past issues, Division information, and the opportunity to voice your comments on the newsletter via e–mail. The content, however —short articles that offer practical tips and advice for the solo and small firm lawyer— remains the same.
