Just looking at the number of EC2 images running under our account makes me wonder if people are missing something or are way ahead of me. What I think they might be missing is that we can develop all our html/
All we have to do is download apache, install the packages for the language above and then stick our files in the www dir (on default linux install anyway). Then we can visit them and they can do anything we want! They can hit the app server. Or they can steal off of the normal server or anyone else's server.
That is one of the best things about the internet. You can do anything you want to whoever is connected and has a public ip address. Granted, they may not respond or you might end up in jail but hey, you can still do it.
Basically, what this boils down to, is come back home! Work from your living room on your own computer without worrying about AWS stuff. Once your page is working, then you can get it onto an AWS instance and such. But if it works from your couch in your house, then it will work on AWS (provided you have the same packages installed.)
