#2Meanwhile, Google Compute Engine still only has four regions and hasn't expanded in over 18 months. (Don't get me started on App Engine, it's not even available for the Asia region!)
Still no presence in the entire southern hemisphere!

GCE's multi-regional buckets are quite awesome though and cheaper than paying Amazon to move between regions

And Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan???
We have been using servers located in North Virginia so far -- it is not that bad actually, definitely better than buying hosting locally.

Could you go into what the price difference is or what your use case is? Just curious in what situations I might want to consider Google over S3.

Amazon has a peered connection at KNIX, although from most locations ingress traffic to the Seoul region is routed through AWS Tokyo first, so latency is probably going to be slightly worse than Tokyo unless accessed from within Korea.
Pricing seems very similar if not identical to the Tokyo region, which is not surprising since bandwidth is rather expensive in SK. Overall I feel this is built to satisfy SK's data privacy laws rather than commercial reasons.

I imagine you were getting downvoted for using multiple question marks, and people not understanding you were just asking a question.
Typically one question mark indicates a question. Multiple question marks usually indicates that you're upset about something or asking a rhetorical question.
For example, most people distinguish a difference between sentences like:
"What are you doing?"
and
"What are you doing???"
The first indicates a question, the second indicates you are upset or that the person is doing something wrong.
The way you wrote your sentence makes it look like you could be making fun of the person you are responding to.
