True, and I had actually misread dmors' post entirely here; I read the post as stating Twilio's blog was not reliant on AWS in anyway, which would have been a misrepresentation in my mind. However in hindsight this was not the case, and I will certainly admit when I am wrong.

dmor, really? It looks like the blog points to AWS, as does your API?

LOL...."504 Gateway Time-out".....nginx must not be one of Twilio's "small stateless services" (F)(A)(I)(L) ;)
Nice write up, pretty interesting that Skype has not come out and said anything about WTF happened. Also ironic that their security blog's last posting it titled "The importance of updating" :) ( http://blogs.skype.com/garage/ )
