This seems like the coolest thing since sliced bread. We're experimenting with S3 but I'm really interested in EC2 also. Anybody else using AWS?



Sure, if you're using Rails it's really easy to use attachment_fu (the new generation of the image/file storing acts_as_attachment plugin) to keep uploaded photos on S3. Also for Rails, Jamglue's technique of putting your entire static file hierarchy on S3 is great for maximimizing your app servers' bandwidth. BTW, Justin.tv runs off EC2 servers.
