Only those who've upload lots of media and don't have any local backups or those who've posted important stuff on their walls and would like to save their friend connections. :)</p> @Michael – Yeah, but not all Facebook addicts.

There is no local copy.How can I get copies of these onto my computer in a format that lets mey make them into HTML files? I don’t upload media, have no interest in doing so.

As far as this facebook backup tool named SocialSafe is concerned, I am unsure whether people will actually rush to buy into this kind of service, whether it is free or not, until such time as they actually experience a loss of data. It must be the ultimate hackers dream to bomb facebook! I've never really thought about it in this manner! It is good to see your blog is up and running again, jaypee!

I'm still thinking on whether I should purchase a license but when I do, expect a more detailed review of the service and desktop client. Again, thanks for stopping by and more power to you guys! :) @Pascal – Thanks for taking the time to drop by and explain more about SocialSafe.

Always great to get feedback on the price too so thanks guys for the comments. I just wanted to chip in to explain why we charge and why people are using SocialSafe.We have a firm belief here at SocialSafe that if you make something useful you shouldn't be afraid to charge for it. We seem to be stuck in the age of free first then try to monetise later. Now this does work in certain circumstances but it's still a high risk strategy and more often requires much greater investment for support, additional development etc. Also free creates less of a connection with users .. easy come, easy go.Much better to do the reverse, charge first so that every user that believes in your product contributes to it's ongoing development. And let's be honest here $3 to save your friend connections, all the photos you've uploaded from a mobile and your wall posts is not a lot to ask. Even at $10 the price we'll eventually be charging, it's a pretty good deal. Many of our users would have paid more.So I touched briefly there on why people are buying and using SocialSafe. According to anonymous stats (provided by users that have opted in to do so) since June we've helped them back up almost 2.5 million friend connections and almost 500,000 photos. The reasons for using SocialSafe are one click peace of mind, easy download of all photos and being able to scroll back in time through backups to see what's changed. One side affect of this last feature is seeing which friend connections you've made and lost.Thanks again for the article and keep up the good work.Pascal Hi Jaypee, firstly many thanks for taking the time to review SocialSafe, much appreciated.
