This is fantastic, it took me about a week to get all that stuff set up a couple of years back. Looking forward to trying it out!

This is a very cool use of EC2: essentially a customizable map server as an appliance.

See Panda for another example of this http://pandastream.com/

Hadn't seen this before. Pretty cool. This tears down a huge barrier to entry in the online video space.

I love these task-specific EC2 images. Is anyone familiar with any others?
