If you want to scale bandwidth eventually, Amazon is the only game in town unless you want to beta test Google. Maybe Microsoft would also let you beta test if you asked nicely.
Is there anyone using enough bandwidth on Google App Engine to hit the bandwidth cap and start paying?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
This is a poor list of YC Companies.
There's the wikipedia list also, which used to have all of them, them several wikipedians insisted on "notability" so it's much less complete than it once was. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y_Combinator
The "News" link on YC points here, so I assume this is intended to be the place for YC company headlines, but I wish there was a more traditional "Press" or similar page on the YC site to track news about and announcements from the participants. An alternative would be some type of parameterized link filtering the results for relevance, but in its current form it just dumps one into the news pool here (which presently looks like _another_ company's Press section!).
If you're looking to scale (as in, you need at least one dedicated machine and will likely be adding more), I highly recommend Softlayer. Their pricing is reasonable and support is pretty good, but more importantly (for my startup) their setup time is incredible. Adding a low-end machine usually takes about 2 hours and higher-end machines take 4-6 hours. That kind of agility has really been invaluable.
It's run by the same management team as ThePlanet, which is another great service, from what I hear.
If you're just starting up, Slicehost is generally considered the best of the VPS providers, though Linode is also well regarded and is cheaper than Slicehost.

I use and would not recommend Mosso or MediaTemple.
I use and would conditionally recommend PHPWebhosting.com, Google App Engine, and RackSpace.
I use and do not have enough data to comment on AWS.
