Someone should make an S3 interface that does automatic file versioning. Basically a CVS for non-coders. It seems like that would be an intuitive feature for any online storage product.

Do any of the current online storage products do this already? I know some of the new ones use S3 (elephant drive and jungle disk, to name two), but I don't think either of them have a versioning feature built-in. It shouldn't be too hard to create...

I'd be much more interested in an article about EC2 + Rails...

Here's one I ran across earlier today. It's the full monty -- he runs his startup completely on EC2.
