Yesterday, Yahoo announced that as of May, storage limits will be lifted from their email accounts. That's good news for all of us who refuse to delete any email, ever. But it may also be good news for those of us looking for a free way to backup our favorite images online. Sure, we could pay to do it. But what if we were to set up a separate email account just for picture backup. Once a week or so we could send ourselves our favorite pictures, even our RAW files.* We could put keywords, titles, and any other relevant information in the body of the email. That way, if we needed to retrieve any of the photos, we could use Yahoo Mail's excellent built-in search to dig them out.
*The current attachment limit is 10 MB, so you might have to send yourself a few messages at a time.
