Read about it and watched it’s screencasts. Seems pretty interesting – think it would be a great solution for hobby stuff now and potentially more serious stuff at some point in the future.

I signed up for the beta to give it a try once i get in.

I’m in the beta now – but probably won’t have a chance to play with it until some time late next week.

so, Eldon, how did you find it? and could you invite me to it? I have tried to deploy a simple app I made with slicehost over past few weeks, but couldn’t make things work because of my complete lack of knowledge and experience with linux and server stuff. This thing seems to be really interesting, probably a better place to get started. oh, btw, my email is hmmminteresting [at] gmail.com.

To be honest – I haven’t had a chance to play with it at all. I’ve been a bit over-extended the last couple of months and trying to keep my head above water.

So I don’t even know if I have invites to share – but I’ll log in and check and if i do – I promise that you’ll get one.
