Cloud Control– Setting up Your Own Server

freeloader 20070913 212511 Cloud Control   Setting up Your Own ServerWeb 2.0 has our information spread all over the globe (and accessible
from anywhere). This is a good thing, most of the time. But what about
local backups and server outages? (MobileMe subscribers feel free to chime
in).

So, how does one take control of their information in the cloud
without losing the global accessibility?

Join me for a Freeloader Friday look at software and setup of your own
server
running right on your own Mac. In this first in a series, we’ll set
up the foundation of a powerful server you control (locally or remotely).
