I got the bill for my S3 usage for last month, the first month I used S3 to replace real deployed servers.
It served the archive of all my old DaveNet essays, Scripting News story pages, and all my podcasts, including some new ones.
The total came to less than $40 for 190.530 GB transferred. Seems like a good deal, it's worth going forward.

"RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's 'Really Simple Syndication' technology, used to push out blog updates, and Netscape's 'Rich Site Summary', which allowed users to create custom Netscape home pages with regularly updated data flows." - Tim O'Reilly.
