I've been meaning to post about this for a few days now... for the holidays, Peter Cooper has launched the Ruby Advent Calendar: 25 Days of Ruby Joy and Celebration. Loads of super-cool Ruby stocking stuffers for all the boys and girls. Today, the 15th day (yeah, I'm way behind), he writes about Adam Greene's rake tasks for using Amazon S3 to back up all your application's code and databases. Sniff, puts me in the holiday spirit.
