Using Rsync / Linux

So, /prog/, I'm interesting in trying to make my normal day to day activities pc sync with my linux debian server on routine to make automatic updates. Would this be feasible using bash or some sort of shell script? What would I need?

It seems to be more practical if I were to set up the script on my server, and set up my pc as the rsync server so that everything could be copied from my pc to the server. This sound about right?

I just want it to be able to check my pc's files, look for differences (say I downloaded a new movie); and if it finds a difference, it'll grab it, if not, it'll move on.

And it'll do this all periodically.
