Aaron told me they were shutting down the service shortly before I was due to go on holiday. I looked at the multivac thing and decided it was just to risky to assume they would actually pick it up (especially given their Trusted By section!) I spent a couple of weeks replacing it with celery, and then later RQ. It was the correct call, but you never know with these things. As far as it goes it was a pretty cheap lesson in not relying on external providers. Having said that, I've spent a fortune on EC2 since because I can't have micro billing like I could with picloud!
