I do an incremental backup every 15 minutes when I am at home (when I am away, it backs up locally every 2 hours then waits until it sees my network to upload to my big drives) . I then have certain directories I REALLY WANT backed up (I don't really care about backing up movies/audio unless I've made them). Those go on my http://rsync.net plan.

I use xfsdump for my snapshots. It's nice and can be incremented easily.
