Now here is a contest I could get into. Carbonite is offering a free trip to for five days and four nights, courtesy of the Jamaica Tourist Board and the Sunset Beach Resort, Spa and Waterpark. Considering how cold it has been up here the last few weeks I could really enjoy a trip to a hot and sunny location. Unfortunately us Canadians are not eligible for this one.
This is an easy contest to enter for those in 49 States, just head over to the Carbonite Facebook Sweepstakes page and like the page and enter. Make sure you check the official rules and if you are in one of the qualifying States.
I tested Carbonite Currents out after it came out and it is an interesting service. Different enough to stand out from the competition and easy to use. I think the best part if not having to worry about copying files to a special folder. When it comes out of beta it will add a great extra feature to the Carbonite service.

One randomly selected entry will win an all-inclusive trip for two to sunny Jamaica, plus a $1,000 Visa gift card from Carbonite. The winner and guest will fly courtesy of the Jamaica Tourist Board to the 430-room Sunset Beach Resort, Spa & Waterpark in Montego Bay.

Two second prize winners will receive Google Nexus 7 16GB Wi-Fi tablets, which along with Currents, will ensure access to recent files while on the go.
Easy access to files wherever you are, and the ability to share files from your phones, tablets and computers makes Currents the perfect travel companion. Before you leave for your next trip, imagine being able to:
- Work remotely from one device. Access all of your recent files from one device, regardless of where they were created or saved. Breeze through airport security by leaving your extra devices at home.
- Check in with co-workers while at the beach. Check to see if a file’s been updated, quickly leave a comment on a file for collaborators, and access documents while away from your work computer or network, should something come up.
- Access your files without planning ahead. With Currents, you don’t need to plan for which files you might need to work on while on vacation. Currents creates a recently used files list across all of your devices, meaning that you’ll always have access to the files you’ve worked on in the past 30 days, no matter which device you are using.
Carbonite Currents is available for free at Labs.Carbonite.com. The mobile app is available for Android devices via the Google Play Store and for iOS through the App store.
