I use an rsync based incremental backup system (I wrote it myself
having used rsnapshot for a while, rsnapshot is OK but I think it's
too complex).

I do hourly incremental backups locally to another disk on my main
machine and I do daily incremental backups to a remote machine.  The
daily remote backups get thinned out as they get older so there are
daily backups for the last month, then monthly ones for 12 months,
then yearly ones.
