Where are the backups?

I created a new backup via the System settings> Backup, but there seems to be no indication of where it was placed. There seems to be no indication of it in ~, and the utility itself offers no way of exporting it (eg: to a file, via email, rsync, anything).

The only option is to copy it to a card, which seems stupid, since it means that I'd have to buy a memory card, a card reader for my pc, and physically back and forth move it every time I made a backup (we have wireless networks, internet, etc, remember?).

So, where's my backup?
