Can't launch instances in EC2 in US-East-1 at the moment.

It appears EC2 is affected as well now: 12:51 AM PDT We are investigating increased error rates for the EC2 APIs and launch failures for new EC2 instances in the US-EAST-1 Region.

Probably just fallout from the fact that EBS snapshots are stored in S3. If you can't create an EBS volume, you won't be able to launch an EC2 instance from it.

"1:08 AM PDT We believe we have identified the root cause of the elevated error rates and latencies for requests to the US-STANDARD Region and are working to resolve the issue."

I'm also having issues connecting to buckets based in Ireland (eu-west-1). Just hangs at authentication stage. Tried from 3 different internet connections, all having the same problem.

For what it's worth, eu-west-1 buckets are working fine for me here, via s3cmd and aws cli.

Open-source library request: A library that lets you use S3 and Google Storage Cloud simultaneously and fail-back to another if one have problems.

There are many use-case when paying 2x for storage is a reasonable tradeoff for higher availability and also be provider independent.

Could this be a reason why Heroku is misbehaving? https://status.heroku.com/incidents/792K

Heroku build logs spitted this out:
