Summary: We haven't talked cloud in a while so Jim and I brought in a guest to help us do a heads up between CrashPlan and BitCasa.

I think it's clear which one we picked but I'll let you find that out!  Special thanks to Tony Raynor for joining.  I'll also unveil a new domain and a new forum! @homeservershow (http://twitter.com/homeservershow) @jcollison (twitter.com/jcollison) @awraynor (twitter.com/awraynor) FlipBoard – Home Storage Geeks http://flip.it/LsCjB (http://flip.it/LsCjB) Surface Geeks – http://flip.it/PcEU (http://flip.it/PcEU) If you want to support this podcast please shop via our affiliate links. iOS App Store (http://bit.ly/tIe3aF) Newegg.com (http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-3070213-10440557) Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Famazon.com%2F&tag=thehomsershop-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325)(http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thehomsershop-20&l=ur2&o=1) Dell.com and Dell Outlet (http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3070213-10673373) HomeServerShow.com is hosted by KnownHost.com (http://www.knownhost.com/affiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=525) Follow the Podcast on Twitter!
