Honestly, I didn't realize there was a free EC2 instance. Its been a few years since I worked with EC2 but I do remember it was interesting.
I had asked (on another board) about some type of node playground and basically met with the "you need a dedicated server or EC2 instance" answer. Not wanting to put out any fundage at this point I figured I'd look into CGI hosting options instead. I already have hosting for other sites and it seemed like a fit. I'll have to start some more googling around EC2 Micro and setting up Node. Any links to step by step articles would be greatly appreciated :) - Jeremy On Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 12:22 PM, Matt <[email protected]> wrote: > On Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 1:19 PM, Jeremy Darling > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> I realize the loss of async in the overall view and that it really isn't >> ideal, but I'm just wanting to experiment a bit.
