Just thinking about my backups... I currently have a fairly simply
backup system with rsync copying the data to my backup server as part of
a nightly cron job.

Do any of you guys do anything more complicated, like diff or
incremental backups? The downside of my current method is that I can
only pull backups from the night before (rather than, say, get a backup
from three days ago). I was pondering some kind of weekly full backup +
daily incremental backup scheme, but not quite sure how to do that.
