automator

In Leopard, on Finder - desktop, right click pop up menu has an option for automator scripts.

In Snow Leopard - they have removed this option.

More over, I would like to learn some automator scripts.

What are the great resources for learning about automator & it's script ?

Suppose, I want to create an automator for creating a tar.gz for selected files & folders. What should I do ?

Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge.
