Here's an AppleScript droplet to compress files and folders with the unix utility "gnutar" which comes with the Apple Developer Tools. This script equals to manually typing "gnutar zcf" with Terminal.

You can have a choice of the archive name. By default, the current date suffix in yyyymmdd format is added.

I built this script to save myself a few seconds every time I back up my files (which happens many times daily). This script is provided to you "AS IS" and the responsibility for its operation is yours. However you should avoid putting any of these ', ", /, :, etc. in the file name.

What's New:
Updated to be compatible with AppleScript 1.8.3.

Requirements:
AppleScript 1.8.3.
