Looks like an amazing product. This is definitely where cloud computing is shifting. Managing servers is just too much of a hassle.

It seems like they have django installed: http://www.picloud.com/pyapi/packages/weblist/python/ Does anyone have any experience with django @ PiCloud?

(I'm one of the PiCloud devs.)

We use Django extensively for our web interface. Our Django code interacts smoothly with PiCloud (we 'self-use' PiCloud in several places on the website0.

What do other people use for cloud computing? How many people have their own Hadoop clusters? How many people use Heroku?

i've tried the beta. seems stable so far, and it definitely helps taking the load off my own system.
