I make it a habit to backup all of my important stuff on at least a weekly basis and often every few days. Do you have redundant power supplies? Internet connections? Where does the redundancy end? With all that said, I think if your email/tech system dies it is a great opportunity to chill out and take some time to relax while IT fix everything :) I think your examples illustrate this really well, all of this stuff plays a huge part in our day to day lifestyles.
