Ever thought about saviing you're discussions in Computer?

Hi Letran! Thankfully I don't have many but might be a good idea to save them too a flash drive or something. It would be nice to refer to them years later and see all the changes and responses I had received.

Wow! Printing it on hard copy entails a lot of hard work and ink as well. She must have too much passion for mylot. You are very passionate to even consider about it. Though i love mylot, i never thought nor considered of saving each and everyone of my discussions. I think i would never even reached that point of archiving it.

I have created my own blog where I store most of my discussions there. It is good idea to keep all our past discussions for our record purposes. It will be unfortunate if mylot decide to cease operation and we don't have anywhere to extract our discussions.

Wow, that's scary, wonder why she did that? I use to copy and paste some posts I wants to read later on, but now I just hit the envelope button, (That I didn't even know about 3 weeks ago..) and have only ones I want to read later, sent to my inbox. I also have a special "mylot" folder on yahoo, so it doesn't clutter up my inbox, but I have discussions that I want to save..Like my computer posts..Do you know how many computer posts I have started here since I signed up??? If I could get all of them into my inbox, I might be able to build my own computer!!! Naw, that's a joke, but I have learned a lot about computers here and some things I forgot to copy and so I forgot how to do some things, like opening my computer up in safe mode..I had to do that yesterday and fortunately my son was here to show me how, again..But I know years ago someone told me how to... So, that would be the only reason and way I wold save a discussion..:)

i remember about two years ago, i retrieved all my discussions and saved the original, at least the original posts in notepad and saved them in my computer. i also made a spreadsheet where it holds the title and the web address of the discussion. but all those notepad files and the spreadsheet lost when i change computers. i lost it when i forgot to save them to my flash disc and transfer them to my laptop... but wait, i still have to check if i have them in my laptop. maybe i am just not sure if i did it or i just forgot about it transferring.

I do saved some of the interesting and important discussions in my removable drive. It is convenient and i can always refer back to my drive whenever i am looking for answers to some of the matters. So far, i haven't print any one of them yet since i think the ink cartridges for my printer is expensive. I ever thought of using the ink refilling system but it don't really cheap either. I think i will only print those necessary and important documents only. As for Mylot discussion, i think i will only print if there is anything which i want to share with my friend who don't have computer. Those that have computer at home, i can always send the discussions over to their email box.

Personally, I guess since I have been a member here for almost 5 yrs. now, I have never been worried about the discussions that I have started etc. and considered saving them anywhere, or printing them out. I know there have been times that I have gone thru some of the older discussions knowing things have changed, but usually for the better, and it can be interesting. But it might be helpful to have record for in case you're looking for something more specific in the future for sure.

Hi Knight, I have never thought about doing anything like this. I was very addicted to this site once upon a time. It is only recently that I have again started being active in here. But at no point, have I considered having hard copies of my discussions. One reason for that was, maybe, that I didn't have a printer at that time. Now that I do have one, I don't feel like I need copies of my discussions and the responses it got. Just stay here and post more.

Hi Letran Knight: I think this should be a good idea but in my case I just copy the information that I consider it will help me in my future or to make some plans online. For the rest of the discussions I just read them and if I feel the discussion is really good I come back to check gow it's doing and probably making a new response. ALVARO

I think that would be an interesting idea to save some discussions you want on your computer. I haven't done it yet. Probably you can try copy and pasting all those in word and note pad. But would you also save other people's discussion responses too? I haven't tried saving discussions but trying to save space on computer, lol.

Hi I never thought about it. I mean I know some user who used to write topics on notepad or else when they are offline so they can copy paste them here when they gets online.. But saving them on computer and even print out them I never think so. I never need of reading them during offline time.

Wow, that was so passionate of the person. I think she is just making sure that all her topics will be saved for future references and review in case something happens to Mylot. I guess, i have to save mine in a USB from now on.

Uhmm that's interesting.. That's a good idea to start doing that. I might do that when I already have printer of my own in our house.

Ay o.O Ok, maybe I really like to discuss in Mylot, but I never thought to save all of my discussion on my harddisk xD. I trust Mylot server with all of my heart, that they will save our discussion here safely, hehe. Anyway it is not hard to trace back our old discussions as Mylot already provide us a feature to do so :o

Hi.. I have gone through some really good and informative discussions in Mylot.. May be I would like to save those discussions or take a print out if necessary. But I have never considered saving my own discussions. Again if I could get some information from the responses given by Mylotters, I would definitely save those data. People, I suggest you all to 'Go Green'. Never waste papre or any 'resource'!! Have a great day!!

I would not consider archiving all the work I’ve done here because it would be an enormous task that I just don’t have the time for, besides I would not have the time to ever read it all again! I do keep some of the posts I’ve come across that have resonated with me and that I may want to refer to in the future.

dear LK, I remember I once said I want my discussion to be printed and have a printed files of it for reading purposes. I guess I will start it soon as I buy new ink for my printer..it's not too expensive then. Then I can have compilations and have something to read and reminisce about mylot... Sometimes I just keep scanning here and reading old topic and responses and it's really good reading old topics and some mylotters who are not active and even deleted their account. have a good day dear brother jaiho®

For me yes it is what a high tech now our technology many doing it fine so that it is easy to move in your life.

Uhh... no. not really and I don't think I would ever. I don't think myLot won't close down as long as they have loyal lotters like us who participate in discussions and use the search box once in a while. We just have to help them make revenue so they can keep the sight running. Discussions do not expire here so I dont think I would need to keep them

hi LK, really?she do that? Well nothing is wrong with it but I think I can save mine in my email draft box happy mylotting
