I've been using a slightly modified version of Tim Bishops shell script [1], 
simply because it was the first thing I found that suited my needs at the 
time.

Though, I've been contemplating a rewrite for some time, to support hourly
backups. Therefore, I'm quite happy this thread turned up in my inbox this
morning :)

Also, it would be really nice if there was some kind of list of different 
automation tools for tarsnap listen on tarsnap.com.
