For example, our internal wiki which has 100s of pages and provides clear business value takes up less than 1Mb. Same for our blog, and a bunch of other important applications which we host as regular apps on Heroku. So, we do really think there's a bunch of genuinely useful stuff you can do within those limits. It's our thinking that in most cases, once you're using significantly more space than that, it's an indicator that you're doing something which provides a business or personal value that's worth paying for.
