I wrote a blog post on exactly this topic: http://dev.bizo.com/2010/05/improving-global-application.html http://dev.bizo.com/2010/05/improving-global-application.htm... Basically, you're on the right track. Note Route 53 doesn't support GSLB (Global Server Load Balancing... e.g., different DNS results for users from different geographic locations). Akamai and Dynect do, however. More details in the blog post.

dnsmadeeasy.com also offers Global Server load balancing (http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/enterprisedns/trafficdirector.html http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/enterprisedns/trafficdirector.htm...). They offer amazing products and service. I have used their DNS service for years. They just introduced the global server load balancing and are testing it out. They are just as good if not much better than any DNS provider, but much cheaper.
