History of World Backup Day

There isn’t much history, as the first celebration of this geek holiday was in 2011. World Backup Day is only a decade old.

But the need is real, now more than ever before. Especially in light of this salient fact: April Fools’ Day. March 31, the day before, is an excellent time to check your backups. On the eve of the day famous for pranks, this might be your last chance.
