Almost 4 years ago, I moved my family from Cincinnati, Ohio to Redmond, Washington so that I could join Microsoft. Since we have two young children, and a small family, the move has been really hard on the grandparents. But as our first Christmas out here approached, I came up with an idea that I've been repeating each year since. Last night, I tweeted about this idea and the tweet went a bit viral, with hundreds of retweets (thanks largely to Scott Hanselman, I'm sure).
Every year I give the grandparents DVDs with all of our digital pictures from the year. To them it's a gift. To me it's off-site backup.
