I didn't know about this, it seems to be very effective and a great business project. And my belief is not only based on the amount of capital invested for this, but on the fact that it has been used, as described above, by Wikipedia, Twitter and Flickr. That is, especially considering Twitter as one of its users, a valuable guarantee for the quality of the service.
