I converted my blog[1] to be static this past weekend using all AWS (S3+CF+Route53) and it went relatively painless. But I decided to use middleman instead, and after using that I don't think I'll be going back to Jekyll.
I still have a Github.com pages account that uses Jekyll because its free, but since its so damn cheap I may convert this to AWS stack as well.
The largest problem I was running into was permissions and invalidating the CF CDN. I am thinking of rolling a simple Markdown editor using node-webkit and scripting up some things to automate everything.

- HeyImAlex 14y agoI wrote a deployment script for s3/cf/r53 in python last week. It's pretty janky right now and is very oppinionated on a lot of things, but it handles invalidation requests for you and the code is simple enough to easily modify to your liking. http://www.github.com/heyimalex/s3tup http://www.github.com/heyimalex/s3tup
