A comment on Showoff.

Wow that's brilliant. I'm definetley a potential paying customer. That's cheaper than spinning up an Amazon EC2 micro instance to develop on at $5 a month.

I'm not a big fan of dark gray background with darker gray text though.

Fortunately sites you create and 'showoff' don't need to use the showoff.io stylesheet :)

EC2 micro instance is $54 a year, so it's only cheaper if you only want 10 months or less.

Free for a year (at least): http://aws.amazon.com/free/

The advantage of Amazon EC2 is that it doesn't go down when your laptop turns off.

Conversely, the advantage of Showoff and its kind is that it does go down when my laptop turns off.
