S3 Roundup

There's a lot going on with Amazon's new S3 service; here's a quick roundup of some of what I've seen in the last couple of days:

• Over at InfoWorld, Jon Udell proposes S3 as a piece of politically neutral architecture.
• Mitch Garnaat has created BitBucket, a set of Python scripts for S3 access. There's even more info in the S3 discussion board thread.
• Dominic Da Silva has created jSh3ll, a Java-based command-line shell.
• Mark Hellewell wrote a similar application in Python.
• Ben Oram is now beta-testing S3 Explorer, a drag-and-drop S3 access tool for Windows.
• There's also a very clean and simple PHP wrapper for S3.

Cool stuff!

Glad to see Amazon giving kudos to the community.
We also appreciate the help from the Amazon devs supporting our questions on the forums 7 days a week.
Keep it up!

Can you please fix the type in my name, it should be Dominic Da Silva.
Also jSh3ll is the correct spelling, as I wanted to make the S3 stand out.
Thanks.
