Late last year, Panda Security released a Social Media Risk Index that shows Facebook was the leader in malware threats at 71.6 percent, YouTube came in at 41.2 percent and Twitter recorded a 51 percent risk for privacy violations.   And 33 percent of SMBs who typically have security technology in place for their users report financial losses to their business as a result of social media-based malware infection.   According to a new study from comScore, more women use social networking sites and spend more time on these sites than men do.  The study concluded that 76 percent of women spent time on social media sites compared with 70 percent of men, and women spent 5.5 hours a month on these sites compared to only 4 hours a month for men.

Found on Chicalogic press release

I can see their logic from a business aspect to use the same appeal for woman products with security software to try and get more users to actually use some protection.

Thanks, I will most likely post it on the Minecraft forums too. :)

Author hollowlife1987


Description
This mod allows Minecraft server administrators access to backup their server through easy in game commands
I needed this mod since at first I was just going to use a shell script while I was able to get it working on Linux I could not so on Windows
So I decided I would make my first Minecraft mod to do what I needed it to do.

I know git is not the best solution for this problem and I'm all ears for better solutions.

Features
  • Initialization of a git repository
  • Manual backup to git repository
  • Hourly backup to a git repository

Planned Features
Other methods of backup.

Usage
Installation
After forge is installed on server copy .jar to mods folder

Using the Application
Use the command
Code: Text [Select]
  1. /sgb init
While in game to create a new git repository for your server followed by
Code: Text [Select]
  1. /sgb autobackup on
To create the first backup and a new backup once an hour.

Uninstallation
Delete the jar from the mods folder.

Tips
This is my first mod so expect some bugs

Known Issues
Sometimes the first backup must be created using git out of game.  No .gitignore file just the following commands
Code: Text [Select]
  1. git add -A
  2. git commit -m "First backup"
If you feel you have the issue where you must do this ensure your server is not running.

As far as I know, only catch is your bound to the license for life, and you have to promote the program among your network of friends / web programmers / designers.

EDIT: I'm sure there are other catches I've forgotten about I'll have to re-read the agreement again to check as I've signed up a couple months ago.

When talking to Krish and Stephen on IRC I informed them of a program Microsoft offers called WebsiteSpark

WebsiteSpark gives small Web development and design companies a jumpstart by providing free tools, technologies and resources to build great websites.

It includes software such as Windows Server 2012 Standard (5 keys none the less) and Visual studio 2012 Professional and other development software.
So if your an independent developer with a tight wallet or a small startup company on a budget this is perfect for you.

I am not an employee of Microsoft or any subsidiary
