I like the idea, but i have one big problem with Whatsrun:
it is capturing my browsing behaviour because it sends any URL i browse in the background to the whatsrun.com server, even when i don't want to know what software the page is running (means clicking the icon), so Whatruns get's a full browsing history from me (and you even set a UUID cookie to track unique users!).
This is a huge privacy issue! Imagine Whatruns is starting to sell this data!
To replicate simply open the dev-console for the extension and click the network tab.

Yes, thats exactly the trick!
With our previous startup we spent around $60K/year for AWS :)

There are more provider like http://www.redstation.com/ but we have only experience with Hetzner & OVH, so i cannot say something about the other ones.

As i said in the blogpost, we still love AWS, its awesome, we used it for many other projects and S3 is great in combination with EC2, but in some cases it makes sense to think about it, maybe it saves you something!
As i said, we really miss the simplicity of AWS, one mouse click and you have a loadbalancer, ec.
PS: trust me, AWS EBS volume can die, and this is a pain! :)
