Something that I've been playing around with is hosting sites on S3. Then you can have a simple cron job that will just update an HTML or JSON data file at whatever frequency you want. Nice way to keep the site static but add a bit of variability.

I don't understand why you need S3 for that. Can't you just as easily schedule an upload of updated files from your computer to your server?

  It's other way around: with S3 you don't need your own server. KISS

  Yea - it can work just as easily on your own server but the idea is that you don't have to worry about hosting at all and rely on S3 which is the most reliable AWS service.
