Fetch-O-Matic is a new approach to automated website maintenance via FTP. Fetch-O-Matic allows web authors to freely create and update files locally without needing to keep track of their work, and then automatically catalog the alterations and update the website. Fetch-O-Matic differs from other available synchronization and maintenance schemes in that it does not require any local machine to have a complete site copy. For example, one might decide to grab a few pages and change them (and/or add some new files) from a Powerbook. Later, the site copy on the primary machine can be quickly brought up-to-date with just two clicks - without having to remember what was changed or open the Powerbook.
