Associations

Backup Service
We use Mozy.com for off-site backing up of files. The 'free' version is likely enough storage for a home PC. We use pay services to backup our server and other production machines. It seems to be very reliable, it's reasonably inexpensive. We like it.
Domain Name Registration
For .ca (Canada) registrations we we use NamesPro. Their control panel is easy, their customer service is great and they are one of the cheapest for .ca registrations. For .com (commercial) we tend to use another company due to cost considerations. If you only have one (or a few domains) to manage we would recommend using NamePro for all your registrations.
