Yeah, you can do something like:

Code:
DATE=`date +%d%b%Y`
find /landing/dir -type f -daystart -mtime 0 | 
zip -q -@ -u /archive/$DATE/archive.zip  || echo "Archive Failed"

Put this in a cronjob to run however often you want (make sure two aren't running at the same time, however). You can use -0 (dash-zero) option to disable compression; useful if these files are really big. It will archive all files from today. If a file is updated/overwritten, it will be overwritten in the archive file as well.
