Another great find and this one with a reseller program run from Data Deposit Box™ itself, which you can join to make some money for your extra external hard drive you really should be buying (okay, that *I* really should be buying).
For $2/GB a month, Data Deposit Box™ offers backup for unlimited users, unlimited computers, and you can try out their service for a 14-day trial. A suitable time to test run this is when you're switching data from one computer to another.
Already I find my 40GB Cutie portable hard drive severely lacking. It's really all my cat and baby photos taking up all the space in my computer. Some time early April I will have to copy over all my stuff to my Lenovo v100 laptop. I managed to carry it with one hand without any trouble today. It sure gives weight (no pun intended) to the term "ultraportable".

backup"
They merged online backup, online storage and file sharing services into one product.
If you try this service you will notice that (contrary to most competitors):
- You can access your files in (true) real time with a web browser
- They really offer 250 GB (some competitors offer a fake unlimited web
space, they say "fair use")
- You can share a file or many files with the 1-click-share functionality
- Some of your files will be uploaded very very fast (turboupload)
- The service and website are in 10 different languages
I've also found two useful guide to online backup on Wikipedia:
