So you're paying $1.05/month for them to run servers that expose
standard protocols -- ssh/scp, http/webdav, ftp, and rsync. Seems like
a reasonable deal for a small number of GBs.
I haven't done anything with S3 yet because they're not exposing
"normal" protocols that I know and love. If I use a particular S3
client, I don't have a lot of confidence (yet) that it'll be readable
by any other S3 client. Am I being overly cautious?
Here's what I'm hoping for across my Linux and Mac systems:
mount -t s3fs ... /home/lindsey/stuff
