Here I would like to share another tool called Beyond Inbox. Technically, its probably the best solution out there to back up emails on Gmail.
Using Beyond Inbox you can also transfer emails from one account to another account and Restore the backup emails.
It also provides Incremental backup plan,which facilitates the users to download newly arrived mails after last back up.

Beyond Inbox works on every OS (MAC,Linux,Windows) where Java is supported.
You can start from here : http://www.beyondinbox.com/beyondinbox-download.html

Comment on Does awareness matter? A cautious viewpoint of KONY2012. by chelpixie

I think that the more people who inform themselves before hitting a button is better for everyone. I think it’s important to take the time to ASK QUESTIONS and for those being asked to acknowledge that asking questions is OKAY and that they have a clear, concise and understandable response.

Maybe most people *have* informed themselves beyond the surface and still choose to support the project. I can’t say, but I’m concerned that many have not.

I think we’re entering a new era (well, it’s been here for a while, but people are finally figuring out how to use it effectively) where we can all have a voice. However, getting that voice amplified is trickier. Trickier still is conveying nuance and why things may not be as simple as we may think they are from first glance.
Take any hot button political issue from cutting off welfare benefits to unemployment, or a myriad of other positions. It turns out, if you take away unemployment benefits, those folks may then have to qualify for welfare benefits and slip further into a hole, as well as take time away from the job search to deal with those issues. Then you are merely shifting people from one governmental program to another, without solving anything but an accounting trick.

While information flows freely, we have to look at accuracy, source, and a more 360 degree view of things. Plus, “awareness” is not action. What are you going to do about it? We are all more powerful than we know, but you have to dig in and make a difference with money or action or somehow do “Something” other than hang out on Facebook. And taking action is hard.

I got ticked off at all the money I feel is being wasted on negative campaign ads the other day, so i started a quick blog, http://www.makeadifferenceforwomen.com, suggesting instead of giving to the political candidate of your choice or their opponent, you give to a favorite, related charity, and have that charity send the politician a card, letting them know a donation was made in their name. Think how much more effective a message you’re sending when you fund a worthwhile 501 c 3 that is putting verbs into sentences and helping people, while letting a politician know of your beliefs as well. My favorite is sending conservative republicans who seem to hate birth control, thank you gifts from Planned Parenthood, but NPR would be equally effective I’m guessing.

The point is, feeling bad and wishing doesn’t make change. Doing something about it does. And that even includes researching issues beyond the commercial spot. Even better, =be the change you want to see, and go volunteer in your own community. That makes even more sense, since all action should begin close to home where you can see the reward for your actions, as well as model that for others.

Money is easy to give. Giving my most precious commodity, time, really shows my commitment.

Comment on Where Google Search Plus Your World Goes Wrong by Krithika Chandrasekaran

Don’t agree all the way, for one search results include both personal and the rest, and if I don’t care for personal results I can choose to not have it show. As for not including other social networks that I can agree is not the best strategy. But Twitter refused to renew contract w/ Google to show real time results and Facebook results that are public I thought were now being indexed by Google
